Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>Mr Ernest Eli Billy Kwami, the District Director, Denkyembour District Office of the National Commission for Civic Education (NCCE), Akwatia, has urged the electorate to be apolitical in the upcoming District Level Elections (DLEs). <\/b><\/p>\n

He said per article 55 (3) of the 1992 Constitution, DLEs were non \u2013 partisan and advised voters to avoid such inclinations.<\/p>\n

He advised a sensitisation forum organised by the Commission on the upcoming DLEs slated for December 19.<\/p>\n

Mr Kwami underscored the importance local governance to rapid socio-economic development of small towns and villages and encouraged the populace to participate in the exercise.<\/p>\n

He appealed to the citizens to elect competent and qualified candidates committed to the development of their communities.<\/p>\n

\u201cPlease desist from demanding financial or other personal benefits from the candidates for votes. It is illegal,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The NCCE District Director engaged the community on roles and duties of local Assemblies, Assembly and Unit Committee members as stipulated in the 1992 Constitution, Local Governance Act, 2016 (Act 936) and Legislative Instrument 1967, and The Local Government (Urban, Zonal and Town Councils and Unit Committees) Established Instrument, 2010.<\/p>\n
