Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Johnson Asiedu Nketiah has urged the National Peace Council to call out the Electoral Commission regarding the delayed declaration of certified presidential and parliamentary results from the 2024 polls.
Asiedu Nketiah in an engagement with the press on Sunday, December 8, 2024 revealed that he was contacted by the National Peace Council to restore calm to agitated youth groups of the NDC on account of these delayed results. He noted that these delays, should they persist, could ignite a resistance detrimental to Ghana’s peace.
The NDC executive affirmed that these groups are not ready for a word of peace but rather truth and transparency especially regarding these delayed certified results. “The National Peace Council called me to talk to the youth in the NDC and tell them to calm down and I told them that I passed that message to them four years ago and eventually they were cheated; this time around I am not ready for that, they are not ready for that.”
He has hereby called on the National Peace Council to contact the Electoral Commission – bonded under a peace pact to do the needful by releasing the certified results of the 2024 general elections to avoid potential harm and unrest that could compromise Ghana’s peace. “The end of the 2024 polls marked the end of all the work that I needed to. The National Peace Council has to call out the Electoral Commission to move by the commitment they have signed to, through the peace pact.”
