Ghana’s opposition leader and the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has pleaded with party followers in the capital, Greater Accra Region to be extremely vigilant in the upcoming 2024 General Elections.
John Dramani Mahama, in his nationwide tour, told NDC executives and key stakeholders during his ‘Building Ghana Tour’ in Accra.
“One of the key things in this election is vigilance, we can do all the campaigning we want, but if we are not vigilant on the day, and we don’t cover every single polling station with eagles’ eyes. You can do all the beautiful things you can, razzmatazz and in the end, you don’t achieve the target you want,” Mahama said.
“So Greater Accra Region, we want you to cover all the polling stations with the best party agents. The election directory, you are aware, is conducting some exercises. They’ve been conducting exams for election directors in their constituencies and the regions because we need the best people who understand the electoral system to be able to monitor the elections in the region.
“We should not be sentimental with these appointments and appoint the right people,” he advised.
The former president admonished the party leadership to carefully select and equip capable agents to represent the party in the December election.
