Ghana’s electoral commission has approved just four candidates out of a list of 17 for December’s presidential election.
These include the flag-bearers of the two main parties:
- Incumbert President John Mahama for the NDC
- Nana Akufo-Addo for the NPP
The other two are Ivor Greenstreet of the CPP and independent candidate Jacob Osei Yeboah.
The 13 who failed to get on the ballot paper did not meet “the requirements of the electoral laws”, according to the electoral commission.
