The National Peace Council has appealed to political parties to eliminate any animosity and agree to forge peace as the general elections approach.
This appeal follows the National Democratic Congress's (NDC) declaration that it will not sign any peace pact ahead of the elections, arguing that issues that cause chaos must first be addressed.
Speaking on behalf of the council at a meeting, Mawuvi Bin Salin emphasised that peace should prevail.
"For us to be able to do that we will need your cooperation. For us to be able to do that we will need some amount of goodwill, [and] trust, for us members of the committee. So with that goodwill and trust we will be very much encouraged to do the best that we can," he said.
National Chairman of the NDC, Johnson Asiedu Nketia, reiterated the party’s stance not to commit to any peace pact.
He outlined 6 conditions including having the President, Inspector-General of Police, Chief Justice, and Attorney General all sign the pact.
