NDC Returns To IPAC




Fifi kwetey







In a significant development, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has officially announced its re-entry into the Inter-Party Advisory Committee (IPAC) of the electoral process.

This comes as the NDC expresses optimism in revitalizing the committee, drawing inspiration from the robust Consensus Building Platform previously established during the tenures of Dr. Afari Gyan and Charlotte Osei as Chairpersons of the Electoral Commission of Ghana.

NDC made this known in a statement dated Sunday, January 28, 2024, and signed by its General Secretary, Fifi Fiavi Kwetey.

The IPAC, a forum for constructive dialogue and collaboration, plays a crucial role in the democratic process of Ghana. It serves as a platform for political parties to engage with the Electoral Commission, the body responsible for overseeing elections in the country.
The re-entry of the NDC into the IPAC marks a significant step towards strengthening democratic practices and enhancing inclusivity within Ghana’s political landscape.
