Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has called upon all political stakeholders, urging them to prioritize the resolution of disputes through the judicial system in the upcoming general elections this year. This plea underscores the importance of a fair and legal approach to address any election-related conflicts.
Emphasizing Ghana’s distinguished position as the most peaceful country in West Africa and the second most peaceful in Africa, Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia underscored the significance of preserving this esteemed reputation. In his remarks, he stressed the importance of not taking lightly the country’s standing in maintaining peace and stability in the region.
Highlighting the significance of the upcoming general elections in Ghana, Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia pointed out that 2024 is poised to be a pivotal year. Amidst the tumult observed in neighboring countries, he underscored Ghana’s distinguished status as an oasis of peace.
“I don’t think it just happened by coincidence; I believe God has His hand on Ghana, and we should continue to pray to maintain peace and stability in Ghana,” he remarked.
Speaking during the crossover service at Action Chapel International, Dr Bawumia underscored that while political actors may harbour differences, the 2024 general elections should not result in any form of instability.
“In Ghana, when we have difficulties and disagreements over elections, we go to court and we settle the matter in court.
“We will settle it that way and we will go back and leave peacefully and this is how I expect the 2024 elections to go,” the Vice President said.
The flagbearer of the ruling New Patriotic Party emphasised the need for Ghanaians to remember the country in their prayers as it gears up for the upcoming general elections.
