The peace and tranquillity of Ghana mean more to me than anything else – Mahama

Former President of Ghana and flagbearer for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, has assured the people of Ghana of protecting the country’s peace.

He indicates that the peace of the country means a lot to him and will ensure that the political party he leads does all in its power to ensure it is protected at all costs.

The former president was speaking at Yendi on Sunday, October 27, 2024, when he made this known.

He said, “The peace and tranquillity of our country mean more to me than anything else. I solemnly commit to you that the party I lead will do all in our power to preserve the peace of our dear nation, Ghana.”

John Dramani Mahama noted that several countries in the sub-region without peace are envious of Ghana’s peace, and therefore it is imperative that the country works towards ensuring that the peace, which is as fragile as an egg is protected.

“My brothers and sisters in the Lord, Ghana is known for its peaceful religious coexistence. We’ve always been the envy of many countries in our sub-region where peace has eluded them.

"As we approach the elections, we should never forget that peace is fragile. Like an egg, once it is cracked, it cannot be put together again without the scars showing. We must never again unleash fatal violence on our people at polling stations, peacefully expressing their democratic rights to choose their leaders,” he said.
