The president’s call underlines Ghana’s continued dedication to democratic values and the orderly conduct of elections.
The call made by President Akufo-Addo demonstrates the country’s dedication to strengthening its democratic foundations.
“Ensuring the fairness and transparency of our electoral processes is a collective responsibility. It requires the active involvement and commitment of all stakeholders to uphold the democratic values that Ghana cherishes,” President Akufo-Addo stated.
President Akufo-Addo’s appeal serves as a reminder that every Ghanaian has a responsibility to ensure a free and open electoral process as the country approaches the 2024 elections.
“Democracies are grounded on viable elections, and this year, like we have done on eight (8) other preceding occasions, we will go to the polls to elect the President and my successor. No true democrat can disregard the importance of elections and the sanctity of the ballot.”
“It must, thus, be in our collective interest to ensure that the rules and regulations for the conduct of this year’s elections are fair and transparent and that we all develop respect for them, a respect that should not be a function of whether you win or lose.”
