Fourteen-year-old promotes peace as chair of Peace Council Board

Accra, Oct.11, GNA – Sophia Kamasa, a 14-year-old final-year student at New Ayoma M/A JHS in the Jasikan District, Oti Region, assumed the role of Board Chair of the National Peace Council (NPC) on Thursday.

The move is part of the Council’s efforts to promote peace before, during, and after the 2024 general elections.

Ms Kamasa, a mentee of Plan International Ghana’s “She Leads” empowerment program, assumed her role as part of the NGO’s activities to commemorate this year’s UN “International Day of the Girl Child.”

In discussions with Board members, she suggested involving a greater number of youth in decision-making processes and activities aimed at maintaining a peaceful atmosphere during the critical election period.

She also urged all political parties to commit to signing the peace pact to help safeguard the nation’s existing peace.
