Let’s avoid voter apathy in the 2024 elections - Ga Mantse

The Ga Mantse, King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II, has appealed to Ghanaians to participate actively in the 2024 general elections.

Speaking at the Inaugural Ghana Report Summit in Accra on August 1, 2024, he said all stakeholders, including the public, have a role to play in making the elections peaceful

“We must all work hard to make 2024 elections peaceful. I appeal to Ghanaians to vote solemnly and avoid voter apathy. We need to perform better and improve the electoral process. The EC has a responsibility to Ghanaians to ensure peaceful elections. They should carry out these expectations with professionalism as we exercise our mandate. Political parties should accept the results when the people have spoken," he said.

He also urged political parties to engage in informed and respectful dialogue during the campaigns.

“Let us engage in informed and respectful dialogue; let's build a society where every voice is heard. Democracy is a journey; let us embrace this journey with hope, devoid of violence and hate speech, to build a future for Ghana. Let's continue to show the world we can be counted upon when it comes to democracy," he stated.
