“Participating in elections is not only a constitutional right but also a civic responsibility. It is an opportunity to choose who you believe can lead and represent the citizenry. Failure to vote means you have left others to decide who should be your leaders and that denies you the moral right to criticize the persons selected for you when they go wrong”.
Mr. Osei Acheampong urged the voters to ensure they did not involve themselves in violence or any acrimonious activities before, during and after the elections.
He called on all Security agencies and other stakeholders to play their roles responsibly to ensure a peaceful election come December 7.
