The National Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Aseidu Nketiah, has called on President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to assure Ghanaians of his readiness to hand over power peacefully at the end of the 2024 general election.
He said the President, though a political party head, had the responsibility as the leader of the country, who should be concerned about a peaceful transition.
He was speaking at the NDC’s National Campaign launch in Tamale on Saturday.
Mr Nketiah said, “We are heading towards a crucial election and as the President, you have a bigger responsibility to make sure there’s a peaceful handing over after the election without a drop of blood.”
He indicated that past Presidents declared their readiness to hand over power a year ahead of elections, adding that President Nana Akufo-Addo had not done so though and there were four months left to go to the polls.
