Accra, Dec. 30, GNA – “It has come to the attention of government that whilst the Independent Electoral Commission is engaged on its constitutional function of managing the run-off of the Presidential Election, some members of the public, particularly of the two contesting parties, are displaying extreme impatience and thereby causing unnecessary tension throughout the country.
“Some sections of the media are also not helping by peddling unauthorized figures, which could prove wrong as some have.
“Whilst government appreciates the great passion with which the entire nation is awaiting the outcome of the event, I wish to appeal to all Ghanaians, especially the supporters of the NPP and the NDC, to remain calm and wait patiently for the declaration of the result by the Electoral Commission, which alone has the constitutional mandate to undertake that function.
“Your total cooperation in this respect will ensure that the peace and security of the nation are not undermined. “May God bless us all.”
