Ghana’s election is expected to be highly competitive

Former Ghanaian President John Mahama is one main challenger to ruling party candidate Mahamudu Bawumia in Ghana’s national elections on December 7. Mahama vows to bolster job creation and the economy, which is recovering from a $30 billion external debt default in 2022. Bawumia says despite woes associated with post-COVID pandemic and internal pressures, he is committed to strengthening the economy. VOA’s Nairobi Bureau Chief Mariama Diallo has this report.
