Ghana has long been known as the oasis of peace in the sea of instability in West Africa. The country’s unparalleled democratic credentials was given further impetus with the successful organization of one of Africa’s freest, most transparent, and credible elections on six consecutive occasions. However, every election year sees a significant rise in the political temperature in the country, due to the high stakes. Every four years, the nation’s tolerance level is tested and we seem to escape a breakdown of law and order and save some minor incidents. 2016 seemed to be a repeat of history.
The eye of the world was on Ghana, and by the grace of God. Ghana maintained it peace in the sea of instability in West Africa. We proved to the world that we understand the true meaning of democracy, by holding one of the most free and fair elections in the whole of West Africa. December 7, 2016. Ghanaians song the unification song since Ghana won its 2016 elections.
