President John Dramani Mahama has forwarded the investigative report on election-related violence from the 2020 and 2024 polls to the Attorney-General for further action.
The President, who has pledged to fully implement the report’s recommendations, said adequate compensation would be provided to victims, including families of those who lost their lives and individuals left with injuries.
“Last week, I received the investigative report on the two incidents. It details and catalogues everyone who was affected by the violence and the circumstances that led to it,” Mahama revealed during a courtesy call by executives of the Ghana Journalists Association (GJA).
He explained that the Attorney-General has been tasked to review the report, determine compensation packages, and, where necessary, prosecute those found culpable.
The President further stressed that election violence had affected not only political activists and innocent bystanders but also journalists who were carrying out their duties.
