In a congratulatory message to the new leader, the Statesman also charged Nana Addo to tackle the numerous challenges facing the country, adding that he has a responsibility of pursuing a leadership that unifies the people so that members of the other side will feel secure.
“Ghana faces huge challenges, many of which you promised to tackle during your campaign tours.
“You have been elected as President because the electorate believes you have the ability to confront these challenges and lead the country with fearlessness, humility and honesty.
“I commend you for committing to be a leader for all Ghanaians in your acceptance address. The onus is on you to pursue a leadership that unifies the people so members of the losing side have no reason to feel insecure.
“I wish you the best of luck as you prepare to assume the mantle of leadership.
“God bless you and our homeland Ghana,”
