The Supreme Court has granted John Mahama’s request to amend some errors in his petition challenging the outcome of the 2020 presidential race.

Mahama rejected the outcome, arguing the verdict was “stolen”, filing a petition at the Supreme Court to challenge the results. The NDC said it will not acknowledge Akufo-Addo as president.
