Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>The Executive Secretary of the National Peace Council, George Amoh, has indicated that the council will have to conduct a public education on its mandates.<\/b><\/p>\n

This follows the criticisms that the council has suffered following the violence that characterized the 202 elections.<\/p>\n

Following the violence, the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) has made a number of demands before assenting to a peace pact ahead of the December 07 elections.<\/p>\n

According to the NDC, there has been a series of violence in some elections in the country including the shooting and killing of 8 persons in Techiman South and the violence that marred the Ayawaso West Wuogon by-election.<\/p>\n

The NDC says although the culprits have not been punished for their deeds despite a Committee report making recommendations from the Ayawaso West Wuogon election violence, the Peace Council which is championing the peace pact has remained silent.<\/p>\n

Reacting to the issue, Mr. Amoh indicated that the Peace Council issued statements to that effect and due to the limitations it has, he suggests the other bodies come in to support.<\/p>\n

He explained that the public demand certain things from the Peace Council because it is not abreast with the responsibilities of the Council, saying it needs to embark on a public education to enlighten the public on what it can do and what it cannot do.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think we have done that, we issued press statements, I think google can now bring them out. If you go to our website you\u2019ll see the statements that we issued regarding those matters. That\u2019s how far we can go.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe think that institutions such as the House of Chiefs, the Council of State should all come in and help so that we are able to get some of these unresolved things resolved,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

Mr. Amoh as disclosed that \u201cwe are also not mandated to pronounce on matters like that. I think the courts have that mandate.\u201d<\/p>\n

Johnson Asiedu Nketia, the National Chairman of the NDC, has enumerated some conditions that need to be fulfilled before the party will consider signing the peace pact being championed by the National Peace Council.<\/p>\n

Amongst the demands the NDC is making before signing unto the peace pact a is \u201cthe full implementation of the investigations of the incident that occurred at Ayawaso West Wuogon Constituency during the by-election.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want to see initiation of prosecution in all the violence during the last election and prosecution for the printing of ballot papers,\u201d said Chairman of the NDC, Johnson Asiedu Nketia, in an exclusive withChristian Yalley.<\/p>\n

Mr. Asiedu Nketia has also stated that \u201cwe want the President to state openly that he will respect the outcome of the 2024 elections\u201d adding that \u201cwe want to see the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Chief Justice (CJ), Attorney-General (A-G) and National Security Coordinator sign the peace pact before we see and sign that document.\u201d<\/p>\n
