Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has appealed to all political actors, urging them to commit to resolving disputes through the judicial system in this year's general elections.
Dr Bawumia highlighted Ghana's remarkable status as the most peaceful country in West Africa and the second most peaceful in Africa, emphasising that such a reputation should not be taken lightly.
He stated that 2024 is slated to be a pivotal year for general elections in Ghana stressing that amidst the turmoil witnessed in neighbouring countries, Ghana stands 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.
