President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has urged Ghanaians to work with security authorities to prevent violence and intimidation during the 2024 general election.
In his speech to the country on Friday, December 6, the president emphasized the security agencies’ preparations and deployments.
“The security agencies, led by the police, have also made all the relevant deployments and preparations that will guarantee the peace, law, and order of the nation prior to, during, and after the election. Let us all cooperate with them to ensure that the election is conducted in an atmosphere devoid of intimidation and violence.”
In order to preserve Ghana’s reputation, he also encouraged its citizens to vote for the candidate of their choice.
“Let us go and cast our ballots in peace and dignity and in an environment of tolerance and mutual respect. Each one of us should go out and do his or her duty to ensure a peaceful and prosperous Ghana and vote freely for your preferred candidate.
“Do this in peace and dignity. It is an individual and collective responsibility. Go and vote. You owe to Ghana and to yourself. Please remember that we have a reputation to maintain as a nation of peaceful elections and to cement our ranking as a developed democracy.”
