In order to make sure that all parties involved in the 2024 general elections are acting morally, former president John Dramani Mahama has advised churches to keep an eye on events in the political sphere.
According to Mr. Mahama, the church must also have a role in raising red flags, but the NDC, as an opposition party, will do its share.
These were expressed by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer on Monday, May 20, during a meeting with the Christian Ecumenical Council.
“This is a president who is appointing politically exposed people into positions of trust where they are supposed to be neutral and non-partisan and so people who have been communicators for the party, people who have been IT backstops for the party, today are Commissioners of the Electoral Commission. How do you expect them to be neutral and fair in what is happening?
“People who were patrons of TESCON on campus are today Commissioners of the Electoral Commission. But we want to wake up the conscience of the nation that the right thing must be done so that the outcome can actually be the will of the people.
“So going up to the election, We will continue to play our part. We will raise the red flags anytime we think things are not going very well. And we believe that the church community should also keep an eye and be vigilant in terms of making sure that the right thing is done.”
