The International Human Rights Commission (IHRC) Ghana has called on Ghanaians to uphold peace during and after the upcoming general elections.<\/p>\n
In a statement issued on December 2, IHRC Ghana highlighted the nation\u2019s history of peaceful elections and expressed confidence that the 2024 polls would continue this tradition.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe peace of Ghana is essential to every Ghanaian and we all have the responsibility to ensure that the election is conducted peacefully, free and fair.<\/p>\n
\u201cPeaceful elections depend on the conscious effort of every citizen to embrace tolerance, coexistence and love for one another. Peace is very expensive but costs less, therefore we owe it a duty to maintain it.\u201d<\/p>\n
IHRC also urged the security apparatus to focus on their professionalism to ensure violence-free elections.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe security apparatus plays a pivotal role in ensuring peaceful and transparent elections, therefore our personnel must focus on their professionalism to ensure violence-free elections.\u201d<\/p>\n
IHRC Ghana further advised political parties, government, media houses, and security personnel, to put in place measures and strategies that would promote free, fair and transparent elections in the country.<\/p>\n
The Commission is optimistic that the 2024 general elections will be peaceful, taking into consideration the arrangements of the Electoral Commission (EC).<\/p>\n
