President Akufo-Addo has reiterated his commitment to support the Electoral Commission (EC) to carry out its constitutional duty of conducting a free, fair and transparent election in the country.
According to him, his government is clear on its mandate of ensuring the 2024 general elections become very peaceful and transparent.
This duty, the President said, will be carried out to perfection to ensure free and fair exercise.
“On 7 December, the Ghanaian people will elect a new President and a new Parliament. The term of the present Parliament expires at the end of the year, and I am in the last year of permissible eight years that a citizen can exercise the functions of President.
“The Akufo-Addo-led government is clear about its obligation and duty to ensure that the impending elections are conducted in an atmosphere of peace and security, full transparency, and respect for the electoral laws of our country,” Akufo-Addo said.
He stressed “I am confident that the security agencies will be alive to their responsibilities and will ensure that the free will of the Ghanaian people and their choice of national leadership will be manifest.
“We cherish our reputation as the beacon of democracy on the African continent and the forthcoming election will reinforce this reputation,” the President added.
