“As we all know, without peace, there can be no proper development. The peace we are currently enjoying is the peace that we will carry through to the elections on 7th December.
“I want to assure the people of Anlo, the people of the Volta region and the people of Ghana, that the elections, the forthcoming elections in December, are going to be free, fair, transparent, and peaceful.
“And on the 7th of December, I will hand over the baton of national leadership to whoever the people of Ghana choose to succeed me.”
