In his Christmas message on December 24, 2024, President Akufo-Addo extended heartfelt congratulations to the President-elect and the newly elected Members of Parliament. The message came shortly after the peaceful conclusion of Ghana’s 2024 general elections, which were seen as a monumental step in the nation’s democratic journey. The President expressed his gratitude to the citizens for ensuring a smooth electoral process, highlighting the election’s peaceful, free, and fair nature. Akufo-Addo emphasized that the successful completion of the elections was a testament to Ghana’s growing political maturity and reinforced its reputation as a symbol of democracy in Africa. He expressed his deepest wishes for wisdom, strength, and divine blessings to the incoming leaders as they prepare to take on their new roles and lead the nation forward.
President Akufo-Addo commended Ghanaians for their commitment to democracy, describing the 2024 elections as a milestone for the country. He acknowledged that while the elections demonstrated the country’s dedication to democratic principles, there were challenges that needed to be addressed. Specifically, the President pointed out the acts of violence that marred what should have been an exemplary democratic exercise. These incidents of post-election violence, he stated, were unnecessary and tarnished the peaceful and fair nature of the process. Akufo-Addo made it clear that such violent actions were unacceptable and must not be tolerated in any democratic system, urging all Ghanaians to work together to prevent similar occurrences in the future.
In his message, President Akufo-Addo underscored the importance of maintaining peace and stability within the country. He called on the new leaders, both the President-elect and the Members of Parliament-elect, to remain committed to the principles of good governance, justice, and inclusivity. Akufo-Addo also expressed confidence that the incoming leadership would build on the successes of the past while addressing the challenges that still persist. As the nation looks forward to the new government’s tenure, the President urged all citizens to support the leaders, as their strength, wisdom, and guidance would be vital for the continued development of Ghana. His heartfelt wishes for peace and prosperity were extended to the people of Ghana, reflecting his optimism for a brighter future under the new leadership.
