Former President John Dramani Mahama, the presidential candidate of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), has asked the government not to send soldiers to polling stations during the upcoming presidential and parliamentary elections.

Mr. Mahama said this during the National Peace Campaign on November 3, 2024.

The former president advocated for strict and equitable enforcement of the law against anyone attempting to incite violence or disrupt the peaceful conduct of elections.

He believes that anyone who interferes with the electoral process should face consequences.

He argued that sending soldiers and national security personnel to polling stations could create an atmosphere of fear and suspicion among voters.

He emphasised the importance of an unbiased judiciary in resolving any potential election disputes.

“Our clergy like all citizens should be able to witness voting and counting peacefully without fear of violence. If someone errs or is disruptive during the election, they should be made to face justice. The government has a responsibility to hold accountable any criminal who masquerades during the elections as state security operatives.

“No weapons must be allowed in or around any polling stations, including at all collation centres. Election security is the primary responsibility of the Ghana Police Service under the Inspector General of Police. There must therefore be no deployment of the military or armed national security operatives at any polling station or collation center. The Electoral Commission must be impartial and the judiciary must be fair and neutral in the events of any election dispute.”
