Vice President calls for wider access to Ghana’s political party histories

Vice President Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang has called for wider access to publications documenting Ghana’s political party histories, stressing the importance of historical knowledge in deepening public understanding of the country’s governance institutions and constitutional arrangements.

She said making such records accessible to the public would enable citizens to better understand the political experiences that have shaped the Republic and equip them to participate more meaningfully in the country’s political life.

She noted that historical understanding should extend beyond those who lived through particular political periods, arguing that younger generations and other members of the public should also have opportunities to learn from the country’s political experiences.
