On behalf of his government and Ghanaians, he extended his "warmest congratulations to the President-Elect of the United States of America, Vice President Joseph Robinette Biden Jr, on his decisive victory in the elections of November 3, 2020.
"I also congratulate Senator Kamala Harris on becoming the first woman Vice President-Elect of the United States," President Akufo-Addo tweeted hours after Joe Biden annexed Pennslyvania to cross the 270 electoral college votes.

"I am hopeful that, over the course of his presidency, relations between Ghana and the United States of America will continue to grow from strength to strength, relations which have, over the years, been based on a shared agenda of freedom, development, progress and prosperity," President Akufo-Addo said
"God bless the American people, and best wishes for their country’s continued success," he added.
