John Dramani Mahama, the flag bearer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), has reemphasised his outfit’s commitment to protecting Ghana’s Fourth Republic as the December 07 election nears.
He says as the party that gave birth to the Fourth Republic, it is committed to ensuring the peace of Ghana remains intact, notwithstanding the stakes involved in the upcoming polls.
Speaking on behalf of John Mahama at the launch of ‘Abatoɔ Asoɔeɛ‘, Onua TV and FM’s version of Election Command Centre Wednesday, September 11, 2024, Gloria Dzifa Ashinyo, stated that just as a mother will do all in her power to protect her child, so it is with the NDC when it comes to Ghana’s Fourth Republic.
“The NDC is the mother of the Fourth Republic and that’s the reason why we have protected the Fourth Republic till date,” she said in Twi.
In her speech, she added that “John Mahama has said that if fairness, truth and transparency prevail in the polls, that is what would bring peace.”
“He wants the security to remain cautious and not discharge their ammunition haphazardly to relive the memories of military rule” she further indicated, whilst admonishing the security agencies to exercise patience in their dealings with the public.
Madam Ashinyo further assured the public, especially the youth, of the relief Mahama’s next administration will bring to them by providing jobs to reduce the teeming unemployment in the country.
“This will make us all unite as fruits of one womb to champion the cause of development we seek for the nation. This will bring the distressed youth some peace since they will get employment for peace to prevail.
She also disclosed that John Mahama expects Media General to be “fair, balanced, unbiased and transparent” in its reportage.
In her closing remarks, she urged that Ghanaians ensure there is justice in their quest for demanding peace.
Meanwhile, General Manager of the Onua Group, Stephen Schandorf, assured that transparency will be at the hallmark of the coverage.
