The National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer, John Mahama, has urged Ghana’s traditional leaders to take a strong stand against political violence as the country approaches the December 2024 elections.
Speaking to members of the Upper West Regional House of Chiefs during his three-day campaign tour in Wa, Mahama expressed deep concern over the increasing cases of political violence across the country.
Mr Mahama attributed this rise in violence to a culture of impunity that exists within the political system, suggesting that those responsible for such acts believe they are protected by powerful figures.
He emphasised that until accountability is enforced, political operatives will continue to engage in violent activities without fear of repercussions.
According to him, the failure to address this issue poses a threat to national peace and security.
