NCCE proposes Democracy Fund to curb vote buying, strengthen political parties
The National Commission for Civic Education (NCCE) has proposed the creation of a Democracy Fund to finance the internal activities of political parties, arguing that inadequate funding is one of the major factors driving vote buying in Ghana's electoral process.
Dr Mohammed also called for stronger internal democracy within political parties, saying they must uphold democratic principles in the way they elect parliamentary and presidential candidates.
He maintained that a Democracy Fund would not only improve the financing of political parties but also strengthen transparency, accountability and public confidence in Ghana's democratic process.
