A study by the Centre for Democratic Development (CDD-Ghana) has unearthed a public desire for reforms or the dissolution of the Council of State.
The nationwide research, whose findings were unveiled in Accra on Thursday, suggests a widespread perception that the Council of State is largely ineffective and lacking in transparency, prompting calls for its outright abolition or expansion of its powers.
Dr.
Kojo Asante, CDD-Ghana Director of Policy Engagement and Partnerships, presented the "Citizens' Expectations of Government: Insight from Post-Election Town Hall Forums" project, which engaged a diverse cross-section of 1,331 Ghanaians across 12 regions between February 25 and March 20, 2025.
