Ghana’s highest offices must belong to those with undivided national allegiance

The reported decision by the Chairman of the Council of State, Right Honourable Edward Doe Adjaho, to reject calls for legislation that would permit dual citizens to occupy Ghana's highest constitutional offices deserves serious national reflection.

It should focus on constitutional integrity, national security, public confidence, and the long-term protection of Ghana's democratic institutions.

It is about one fundamental question:Should those entrusted with leading Ghana owe constitutional allegiance to only one country or to two?
