Joyce Bawa Mogtari, personal aide to President-Elect John Dramani Mahama, has attributed Ghana’s newfound peace and tranquillity to the overwhelming electoral victory of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the 2024 general elections.
In a celebratory post on X (formerly Twitter), Mogtari praised Ghanaians for their resounding support, which she described as a clear mandate for Mahama’s vision and leadership.
She expressed gratitude to God and the citizens for delivering what she termed a “fantastic scoresheet” for the President-Elect.

“Finally, we give all the glory to God and the good people of Ghana. Ghanaians overwhelmingly endorsed @JDMahama and gave him a fantastic scoresheet,” Mogtari wrote.
Mogtari noted that Mahama’s win, with 57.7% of the valid votes cast, has brought a sense of calm to the nation, diffusing the tensions that characterised the election season. The Electoral Commission declared Mahama the winner over his main rival, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), who secured 41% of the vote.
According to Mogtari, the peaceful outcome is a testament to Ghanaians’ desire for change and a better future. “HE John Dramani Mahama’s resoundingly excellent performance in the elections has brought some peace and tranquillity to X,” she said.
Mogtari also criticised the outgoing NPP government for what she called its failure to address governance challenges and reliance on propaganda during the campaign. She argued that Mahama’s victory was a direct rebuke of such tactics.
“All the ones who peddled lies and falsehoods and refused to work on the bad image and impunity of the NPP government… have each seen their smoothness level,” she remarked, urging political stakeholders to take research and voter concerns more seriously in the future.
Joyce Bawa Mogtari highlighted Mahama’s win as a pivotal moment for the nation to reset its course. Under the theme of “Reset Ghana,” the NDC has pledged to tackle key issues such as economic recovery, social equity, and strengthening democratic institutions.
