Following the Electoral Commission’s (EC) balloting exercise on September 20, 2023, the former president took to social media to celebrate the outcome.
Mahama described the number eight as a symbol of hope and change, rallying party supporters to embrace the significance of the position as the nation heads to the polls on December 7, 2024.
“I am excited that we picked No. 8 on the ballot for the upcoming presidential elections. Let’s make this a number of hope and change on December 7,” Mahama shared on his Facebook page.
