The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has reaffirmed its stance on not signing a peace agreement for the upcoming December elections unless the recommendations of the investigative committee on the 2020 electoral violence are implemented.
Despite appeals from the Peace Council, NDC National Chairman Johnson Asiedu Nketiah emphasized during a campaign rally in Agormanya that the party will not commit to peace without accountability for past electoral violence.
He stressed that those responsible must be held accountable before the NDC agrees to sign a peace pact.
“Those leaders urging us to sign the peace pact must understand that every life matters. We cannot allow people to die in pursuit of power. The lives lost during the election must not be in vain. If such actions cannot be held accountable as crimes, we will not sign the peace pact.”
“We will not let wrongdoers walk free, using the peace pact as a scapegoat. We need to set an example to deter others. We will never sign a pact that allows impunity. We owe it to the victims and their families to seek justice.”
