Ghana’s Attorney General, Godfred Yeboah Dame, has assured the United States of America (USA) and the International community of the government’s commitment to making the December elections peaceful and transparent.
He attributed this commitment to the significant point the world is at in its democratic practice, as elections are set to take place in over 64 countries globally this year.
Mr Dame made these remarks during the 248th Independence Anniversary of the USA, in Accra on Thursday.
The AG highlighted that both Ghana and the USA are gearing up for their general elections later this year.
He expressed optimism that the electoral processes would be smooth, further solidifying their reputations as global models of democracy.
“As you may all be aware, we are at a momentous point in the practice of democracy around the world, as 2024 will witness national elections in more than sixty-four (64) countries globally, including Ghana and the United States of America.
“As we prepare for the upcoming elections, it is my hope and belief that the process will be smooth, devoid of polemics and tribulations, and once again consolidate the status of our two nations as models for democracy around the world.”
He further stated that the democratic process not only determines the future leadership of a country but also mirrors the aspirations and prosperity of its citizens.
“The world will be closely observing as voters in both countries exercise their democratic rights, marking the beginning of a new chapter in the political landscapes of the two nations. Recognising the importance of civic engagement in promoting social justice and strengthening democracy, the Government of Ghana assures the United States of America and the entire international community of its commitment to ensuring that Ghana’s upcoming elections will be peaceful, transparent, free and fair,” Mr Dame stated
