Former President, John Mahama has urged supporters of the NDC who are protesting the outcome of the 2020 elections to do it peacefully.
Supporters of the party have been hitting the streets to protest the results of the parliamentary and presidential elections.
Following protests in Accra, Takoradi and some parts of the country, Mahama is urging his supporters to protest peacefully.
Reacting to the spate of protests against the EC, Mahama called on his supporters to manifest their displeasure in a peaceful manner.
The NDC presidential candidate also lauded the Ghana Pentecostal and Charismatic Council (GPCC) for recognising the “protests as an instrument of democratic expression.”
“I commend the Ghana Pentecostal and Charismatic Council (GPCC) for the recognition of protests as an instrument of democratic expression,” Mahama wrote on Facebook.
“Elections can be emotive and the EC’s incompetent handling of the Dec 7 poll leaves a sour taste in the mouths of all patriotic citizens.”
He added;
“It is important to hold the EC accountable to ensure that it purifies itself and rises again to be the leading electoral body on our continent, Africa.
“I still urge all who feel outraged by the EC’s conduct to manifest their displeasure in a manner that is peaceful.”
