AFAG postpone ‘Let my Vote Count March’
This, in the opinion of AFAG, marked a complete deviation from the popular notion of democracy which thrives on ‘majoritarian’ rule.
Alliance for Accountable Governance (AFAG), is a pro democracy group in Ghana with an objective of making sure governments are accountable to the citizenry.
According to AFAG, the Ghanaian example was explicitly stated in article 63 (3) of the 1992 Constitution. The constitutional provision states categorically that “a person shall not be elected as president of Ghana unless at the presidential election the number of votes cast in his favour is more than 50 per cent plus one of the total number of valid votes cast at the election”.
In view of this, the AFAG will embark on the ‘LET MY VOTE COUNT MARCH’ in Accra tomorrow.
Accordingly, the group would converge at the Obra Spot at 6:00 a.m, move through Farisco- TUC- Tigo Head Office- the Mental Hospital - Asylum down Round About – In front of the PPP Headquarters- Ring Road Central and climax it at the Obra Spot.
The group urges all Ghanaians to come out in their numbers to support the course.
