Ghana is set to elect its president and parliamentary representatives on, Saturday December 7, 2024.

According to the Electoral Commission, a total of 18, 774,159 valid voters are expected to participate in more than 40, 000 polling stations across the country to elect a president and 276 parliamentary representatives.

Initially, there were thirteen (13) presidential candidates, but following the death of one of the presidential candidate, Madam Akua Donkor, founder and leader of the Ghana Freedom Party (GFP), the current number of candidates stands at Twelve (12), with four independent candidates.

The country since 1992 has held about seven (7) elections with Saturday December 7th being the eighth (8th) general election.

The country has since 1992 generally experienced a two party system which is the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the National Democratic Congress (NDC).

The New Patriotic Party (NPP) is currently holding power as the incumbent government with the Vice President running as the party’s Flagbearer and Presidential candidate.

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has its leader as the former Vice President and President, John Dramani Mahama.

The contest has been very tight with several researchers projecting a majority win for either of these two.

However, some researchers have also predicted the swing in vote pattern for the emerging new independent candidates who are likely to contend with them.

They are the New Force Movement Leader, Nana Kwame Bediako and former Trade and Industry Minister, Alan Kwadwo Kyeremanten.

The presidential candidates are;

1. Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia – New Patriotic Party (NPP)

2. Daniel Augustus Lartey Junior – The Great Consolidated Popular Party (GCPP)

3. Christian Kwabena Andrews- Ghana Union Movement (GUM)

4. Kofi Akpaloo- Liberal Party of Ghana (LPG)

5. Mohammed Frimpong- NDP

6. Nana Akosua Frimpomaa- Convention People’s Party (CPP)

7. John Dramani Mahama – National Democratic Congress (NDC)

8. Hassan Abdulai Ayariga- All People’s Congress (APC)

9. Kofi Koranteng- Independent

10. George Twum – Barima- Adu- Independent

11. Nana Kwame Bediako- Independent

12. Alan Kwadwo Kyeremanten- Independent
