In less than 25 days, Ghanaians will be going to the polls once again to elect a President and 275 members of Parliament in a historic general elections.
This year's elections will usher in a new leader, as the current President, Nana Akufo-Addo steps down after completing his constitutionally limited second term in office. This will mark Ghana’s fifth presidential succession since the return to democratic multiparty politics in 1992, augmenting Ghana’s reputation for having institutionalized predictable and rules-based presidential transitions.
