“When you preach about peace, also preach about justice because when there’s no justice, there is no peace”- Mahama to Ghanaians

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer, John Dramani Mahama, vowed resolutely to ensure peaceful elections this December at the funeral of former Minister of Information John Tia Akologo in Duusi, Talensi District.

Speaking to the mourners, the former president emphasized that there will be no electoral violence caused by the NDC.

“If there’s going to be violence, it will not come from us, the NDC,” Mr. Mahama assured.

Mr. Mahama emphasized the significance of justice for a fair electoral process and urged religious leaders to temper their support for peace with a call for it.

We anticipate a peaceful election process because we are confident in our victory. He emphasized, “If there is going to be violence, it will not originate from the NDC.

“But I will crave our Reverend Fathers when you preach about peace, also preach about justice because when there’s no justice, there is no peace,” Mr. Mahama urged.

In a firm stance against electoral malpractices, Mr. Mahama pledged that the NDC would resist any attempts to rig the elections.

He emphasised the party’s dedication to ensuring a transparent process.

“We are for peace, but we will resist any attempts to rig this election. I assure Reverend Father that we will play our part to have a free, fair and transparent election and we believe that God will rescue our country from the crisis we find ourselves in,” Mahama stated.
