President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has promised to ensure that the upcoming December 7 elections are free, fair and peaceful.
The president assured that no candidate would be imposed on the country against the will of Ghanaians.
Speaking at a meeting with the Apostolic Nuncio in Ghana, President Akufo-Addo said Ghana’s democratic credentials will be kept intact after the polls.
He indicated that the choice of a leader is the sovereign will of the people and that that democratic right will not be tampered with under his tenure.
“We are going to do everything possible to make sure that the elections to be held in December are free and fair and credible. We do not subscribe to the view that a group of people can manipulate the will of the people and impose a leader on them.
“We think that the choice of leader of a country should be the unreserved, unqualified exercise of sovereign will by the population in the country.
“We are going to do everything possible to make sure that the elections that are held in December reflect the will of our people.”
