Former Minority Leader Haruna Iddrisu has called for the elimination of the “winner-takes-all” system from Ghana’s political framework.
He believes that this system, which grants the winning party disproportionate control, hinders the development of an inclusive and participatory democracy.
His call for reform follows a stakeholder workshop organised by the Ministry of Parliamentary Affairs, where discussions on potential constitutional amendments were held.
Mr Iddrisu emphasised the need for changes that would foster greater inclusivity and prevent the marginalization of opposition parties.
As the Member of Parliament for Tamale South, he argued that the concentration of political power in the hands of the ruling party weakens the political voice of minority groups.
