, National Democratic Congress (NDC) Member of Parliament (MP) for North Tongu Constituency, Volta Region, has applauded a move by the US government to deny visas to individuals who undermine the democracy of Ghana. "A most welcome statement from the US Secretary of State," Ablakwa wrote on Facebook, Monday, October 28, 2024.
He intimated that some political actors had plans to cause violence and rig the upcoming Saturday, December 7, general elections, and escape the consequences with their loved ones.
He added that the announced visa restriction policy by the US will serve as a deterrent. "Those misguided unpatriotic elements who think they can instigate violence, rig elections, and subvert the will of the Ghanaian people only to escape with their families to other countries are very likely to rethink," he said.
