President or Acting President[edit]

Is Mahama President of Ghana? or is he still Vice President merely peforming presidential powers & duties as Acting President? GoodDay (talk) 22:18, 24 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

In 'sub-section 59-6' under the section 'Executive', of the Ghana Constitution. It says the Vice President becomes President, whenever his/her predecessor dies, resignes, is removed from office. The new President serves the rest of his/her predecessor's term. GoodDay (talk) 22:24, 24 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Possible copyright violation in section "Awards and honours"[edit]

Mahama won the December 2016 general election with 55.70%[edit]

The content under the "Political appointments", sub "As President" has been wrongfully edited to contain invalid information.

Please change

"Mahama won the December 2016 general election with 55.70% of the total valid votes cast and a 3% winning margin beating his nearest rival, Nana Akufo-Addo of the main opposition New Patriotic Party, who polled a close 47.74%.".

Semi-protected edit request on 10 December 2016[edit]

Please edit "John Dramani Mahama is the outgoing president ..." to "John Dramani Mahama is the current president ... "

It is not clear what "outgoing" means and the fact remains that he will remain president till noon on January 7th 2016. But till then he is president and there is only one kind of president that he can be. Adams.k (talk) 03:09, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
