The National Disaster Management Organization (NADMO) on 17th September 2020 performed a simulation exercise for December 7, 2020, Parliamentary and Presidential election.
The Director-General of the Organization Hon. Eric Nana Agyemang-Prempeh opened the exercise organized by NADMO to prepare disaster management workers ahead of this year’s upcoming Presidential and Parliamentary Election.
Guided by the concept of strategic pessimism he encouraged the representatives of the participating agencies to prepare in the event of an unlikely situation of electioneering crisis.
The exercise comprised both a tabletop and full-scale simulation exercise which took place at the Headquarters, Northern, Eastern, and Greater Accra Regions simultaneously via Zoom.
The exercise is scheduled to take place later in the other 13 regions in the country.
The exercise involved the United Nations, which will coordinate international support in case of any crisis.
The event was also graced by representatives of the Electoral Commission, the Ghana Armed Forces, the Police Service, the National Security, the Ghana Health Service, the BNI, the Ghana National Fire Service, the Immigration Service among others.
