What do you believe is the single most important factor driving up the cost of living in Nigeria?

Accra, Oct. 11, GNA – Justice Francis Emile Short, former Commissioner, the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ), has called for the prosecution of the perpetrators of the killings during the 2020 general elections to ensure peace in the 2024 general election.

He said the prosecution of the perpetrators was non-negotiable to serve as an assurance to the electorates to prevent them from resorting to violence when confronted by opponents.

According to him, for instance, recommendations from investigations of violence during elections such as the Ayawaso West Wuogon by-election should be fully implemented.

The former CHRAJ Commissioner was speaking at this year’s West Africa Policy Dialogue Series (WACPoDiS) on the theme: “Towards Democratic Consolidation: Strengthening Inclusion, Transparency, and Credibility in the 2024 Ghanaian Election.”

The dialogue, organised by the West Africa Civil Society Institute (WACSI), which brought together civil society, political parties, and the electoral commission, addressed critical issues such as electoral violence, misinformation, and the socio-economic factors shaping voter engagement as Ghana approaches its pivotal 2024 elections.
