The PPP has proposed and will continue to advocate for an effective legislature that is able to effectively check the executive and get Ghana fixed.  We the citizens should as a matter of urgency, promote the campaign to amend the constitution to prevent the president from selecting 50% of his ministers from amongst the members of parliament.

ABORTED 17TH DECEMBER 2019 REFERENDUM: WE STAND BY OUR COMMITMENT FOR THE ELECTION OF MMDCEs

Posted Leave a commentPosted in PPP News

We propose that, parliament should still make change happen by focusing on amending Articles 243(1), 243(3), 248(1)(2) and 242(d) to establish the basis for the election of our MMDCEs.

If we are interested in holding our leaders accountable in the generation and judicious use of our resources for rapid development at the local level, then we must all support the call by the PPP to change the Constitution to enable the election of all MMDCEs.
