Nigeria Vrs Ghana: Wind Of Change Or Mere Coincidence?

Many people have tried to connect the just ended Nigeria's election to Ghana's upcoming election in 2016.

The main political parties in the country; New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) are also playing politics with General Mohammadu Buhari's victory and Goodluck Jonathan's defeat.

Well, Ghanaians surely have a way of comparing issues. This is what we found on social media: will you describe it as a coincidence or it is indeed a wind of change blowing.
