The NDC is ready to contribute to maintaining peace – Mahama Charged….,

 

At a ceremony held by the National Peace Council on Thursday, November 28, at the Kempinski Hotel in Accra, Ghana’s presidential contenders for the December 7 elections signed a peace covenant, pledging their commitment to peace.

Representatives from all political parties and their flagbearer’s were present at the ceremony, which was organized to guarantee a calm election process.

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer, John Dramani Mahama, reiterated the party’s commitment to promoting peace and stability in Ghana. He mentioned in his address.

“We in the NDC remain internally committed to building a peaceful and prosperous country where the aspirations of all our people can be met. Our active participation in this event underscores its significance and reflects our overall effort to guarantee peace and preserve our nation in the aftermath of the upcoming elections.”

“The government’s commitment to preserving peace is called into question by its passivity in the wake of the murders of eight civilians during the most recent elections.

We have to make sure that such terrible events don’t occur again. To convince the public that we are committed to peace and accountability, justice must be served and every Ghanaian life matters.

Additionally, he asked Ghana’s security forces to continue being fair and professional while applauding them for their role in upholding law and order.

Mahama urged the media to support truthful and impartial reporting while refraining from deceiving the public.

Mahama turned to the Electoral Commission, thanking them for their cooperation so far and expressing the confidence that they would act impartially to avoid conflict.

“Let us all pledge to promote peace during these elections,” the presidential contender said in his closing remarks.

Together, let’s establish an atmosphere that supports free, fair, and peaceful elections. Maintaining the peace and stability Ghana has experienced for so long is something we owe to ourselves, our kids, and future generations.
