The Frimpong-Manso Institute (FMI) has joined the chorus of congratulations for President-elect John Dramani Mahama and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) on their historic win in the 2024 presidential and parliamentary elections.
The Institute commended Vice President Dr. Alhaji Mahamadu Bawumia for his gracious concession of defeat, demonstrating remarkable political maturity and civility.
This peaceful transition of power reinforces Ghana’s reputation as a beacon of democratic excellence in Africa.
The FMI in a press release copied to OTEC News Desk on Monday salutes all stakeholders, including political parties, candidates, the Electoral Commission, and the Election Security Task Force, for their contributions to the successful elections.
The voters and general public also deserve praise for their significant role in the democratic process.
However, the Institute expresses concern over the loss of three lives and isolated incidents of violence during the elections. It emphasizes that violence has no place in democracy and calls for immediate investigations and punishment of perpetrators within the law.
This statement from the Frimpong-Manso Institute underscores the importance of peaceful democratic processes and the need for continued efforts to promote national cohesion and stability.
