I urge Ghanaians to be peaceful, purposeful - Nigeria's Goodluck Jonathan

According to Goodluck Jonathan, Ghana's great disposition towards civic duties has always been admirable.

"The good people of Ghana have always impressed with their pleasant disposition towards civic duties. As they file out today to elect their President and next set of parliamentarians.

"I urge them to be peaceful and purposeful, as a means of deepening their enviable republican credentials and consolidating democratic experience in Africa," he wrote via his official Twitter handle.

He further admonished the two candidates of the country's leading political parties, the National Democratic Congress' John Dramani Mahama and the New Patriotic Party's Nana Addo Danquah Akufo-Addo to continue to ensure a credible election.

"I am optimistic that Ghana's leading presidential candidates, @NAkufoAddo and @JDMahama both of who are cultured politicians will recommit themselves to promoting a credible polling process, so that at the end of the day, Ghana wins and African gains," he concluded.
