The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has vowed to hold the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Dr. George Akuffo-Dampare, and other security leaders accountable for any loss of lives during the 2024 general elections.<\/p>\n

The party has urged the IGP and relevant security agencies to strengthen measures to protect lives during the upcoming elections.<\/p>\n

Speaking at a press conference on Tuesday, November 19, 2024, the NDC\u2019s National Communications Officer, Sammy Gyamfi, stressed the importance of preventing any casualties during the electoral process.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe NDC and by extension, the people of Ghana will hold the IGP, the Chief of Defence Staff and our security heads responsible for the loss of a single life in the 2024 general elections.<\/p>\n

\u201cElections are about counting heads and not cutting heads. No person must lose his or her life on the altar of elections.\u201d<\/p>\n

He conveyed a sense of optimism regarding the party\u2019s success, asserting that the citizens of Ghana would select their candidate, John Dramani Mahama.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have no doubt that Ghanaians will choose an honest leader who upholds the virtue of truth over one who is completely allergic to truth.\u201d<\/p>\n
