The inauguration of a Joint Presidential Transition Team has been slated for Wednesday, December 11.
“We agreed on an early inauguration of a joint transitional team as early as Wednesday the 11th of December,” President-elect John Dramani Mahama said on Monday.
Mr Mahama made the disclosure in his victory speech a few hours after the Electoral Commission had declared him the winner of the Presidential Election with 56.55 per cent of the valid votes cast.
He said he had received a call from President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, who graciously extended his congratulations to him.
The duo had the opportunity to discuss matters related to the joint transitional team.
“I conveyed my sincerest regards to him and expressed my readiness for us to work together to ensure a smooth transition in the best interest of the Ghanaian people,” the president-elect said.
