IGP warns political parties against disruption of electoral activities

Inspector General of Police (IGP) Dr George Akufo-Addo Dampare has issued a stern warning to political parties and other stakeholders in the electoral process to refrain from taking the law into their own hands as the country prepares for the 2024 election.

During a meeting with the EC Chairperson, Dr Dampare explained that police personnel would be deployed to all exhibition centres and would adopt a strict approach against anyone attempting to cause disruptions during the process. He also assured that the police have a rapid response plan in place to manage any potential crisis.

He assured the election security task force that the EC is fully committed to ensuring a peaceful, credible, and transparent electoral process. Dr Asare also stated that all necessary measures have been put in place to guarantee that the nation witnesses another credible election.
“We have done the limited voter registration exercise.

We have also done the mop-up. We have been able to compile the register for the special voting.”
