In a press address post-voting, the Speaker of Parliament expressed satisfaction about the serenity of the voting process thus far.

"This is how civilised people do their things. It tells you the level of development here in Ghana. I would like us to stop worrying about pessimist things and look at the good sides. We are making progress.

"When we go like this, very soon America, the West, and others would come and become election observers here because we are doing it right. I am very happy," he said.
