The United Nations has high expectation for Ghana’s Electoral Commission (EC) to deliver another peaceful and transparent election on December 7. Dr Christine Evans-Klock, the United Nations Resident Coordinator in Ghana, said Ghana’s track record of peaceful elections and strength of its institutions are important assets for the country. There is no complacency, but continued appreciation and support for their work,” Dr Evans-Klock stated at a Colloquium on Peaceful Elections in Ghana. “These institutions and this reputation are too precious for Ghana’s continued development and prosperity, and for Ghana’s influence internationally, to be taken for granted,” she added. Dr Evans-Klock noted that the series of effective and peaceful elections had contributed to Ghana’s international reputation.
