Akufo-Addo congratulates President-elect of Liberia George Weah

Ghana’s President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has congratulated President-elect of Liberia George Oppong Weah.

With nearly all ballots from Tuesday’s run-off vote counted, the former football star is well ahead of opponent Joseph Boakai with more than 60% of the vote.

In a Facebook post, Mr. Akufo-Addo wrote “Warm congratulations to George Oppong Weah on his decisive victory in Liberia’s peaceful presidential run-off, thus becoming the next President of the Republic of Liberia.





“Vice President Boakai is also to be commended for the maturity of his campaign. This election has strengthened the frontiers of democracy in Liberia, and it is our hope that it will lead to the improvement of the living standards of Liberians. Best wishes for the success of President-elect George Weah, and Vice President-elect, Jewel Taylor”.

He will succeed Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Africa’s first elected female president, in Liberia’s first democratic handover in decades.


“I measure the importance and the responsibility of the immense task which I embrace today. Change is on.”
