President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has promised that the 2024 General Election in Ghana will be transparent, free, fair, and without violence.

According to the president, anyone planning to cause trouble during the election to reconsider, as he will not tolerate any violence.

He made these statements while attending the Bakatue Festival in Elmina, where the chiefs and people perform rituals at the Benya Lagoon to officially start the fishing season. The festival, celebrated on the first Tuesday of July, gives thanks to the gods and asks for a good fishing year.

This year’s festival theme is “Patronising made in Ghana goods and services to enhance economic development: The role of the people of Anomansa.”

President Akufo-Addo stated that Ghana is globally reputed as a beacon of democracy and called on citizens to ensure a peaceful election.

“We are going to elect a leader; we are not going for war. I want them to understand that my government will not allow any nation wrecker to plunge this country into a state of war and anarchy because of the election, he said.

“The election will be transparent and fair, and the results will be accepted by all, no matter who wins or loses.”
