The National Democratic Congress (NDC), in conjunction with other Political Parties, Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) are to embark on a Probity and Accountability March, in honor of the memory and legacy of the Founder of the party and Ghana’s first president of the 4th Republic.
The march is scheduled for Thursday, 26th November, 2020 in Accra and it is intended to reawaken the principles of probity and accountability which were passionately championed by Flt. Lt. Jerry John Rawlings during his lifetime, “but has come under serious threats, as evident by recent developments in the country”.
A Press statement issued in Accra and signed by NDC National General Secretary, Johnson Asiedu Nketia said, “The Party believes that it is imperative at this time to rally Ghanaians to uphold and respect the principles of probity and accountability enshrined in the 1992 Constitution of Ghana, even as the nation prepares for the December 7 Polls”.
The Statement extended an invitation to all its teeming supporters, Political Parties including the ruling New Patriotic Party, CSOs and the general public to join in this march, which he stated “is a befitting tribute to the memory of Ghana’s foremost anti-corruption giant”.
