President John Mahama and two time flagbearer of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) put aside their political “rivalry” and engaged in a hearty quick chat and laughter at the Odwira festival at Akropong-Akuapem on Friday.
The two, graced the ceremony to mark the 40th anniversary of the paramount chief of the Akropong-Akuapem traditional area, Oseadeeyo Addo Dankwa III.
President John Mahama was declared winner of the 2012 presidential elections by the Electoral Commission (EC) but Nana Akufo-Addo challenged the results at the Supreme Court in a historical election petition.
The court also ruled in favour of President John Mahama but Akofo-Addo again said he disagreed with the verdict.
Former President Rawlings was also at the ceremony and met with President John Mahama briefly.
