The National Peace Council (NPC) has called on the leadership and youth of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to unite in condemning political violence and work collectively to preserve peace during electoral exercises.

The appeal follows a series of violent disruptions during the ongoing parliamentary rerun in the Ablekuma North Constituency.

Notable incidents included an invasion by unidentified men at the St.

Peter's Methodist Church polling station and the assault of journalists covering the polls.
