NCCE engages Keta Nursing and Midwifery Training College

In the run-up to the 2024 Presidential and Parliamentary Elections, the Keta Municipal Office of the National Commission for Civic Education (NCCE) has extended its public education on elections to students and staff of Keta Nursing and Midwifery Training College.

The engagement touched on a number of subjects, including electoral offences, fake news, mal-information, misinformation, and disinformation, which are relevant matters of focus in the electioneering messages of the Commission.

Leader of the team, who is also a member of staff of the Keta Municipal Office, Nora Amevor, addressing the gathering, underscored the need for every well-meaning Ghanaian to stay alert and look out for miscreants who are on a mission to promote violence, which has become a global bane.

She also implored them to contribute to the democratic system which the country has pursued and adopted for over thirty (30) years by participating in the impending elections, while advising that the election process is the medium afforded by the 1992 Constitution to enable citizens make a choice on who is best fit to bear the torch for the country.

“Most politicians, because of their malicious intentions to win at all cost, take their relatives out of the potentially dangerous trap they themselves have set, by moving them out of this country”, Ms. Amevor expressed, adding, “this is why you also have to look out for yourself and put your best interest and that of the country at heart. Do not become a perpetrator of violence”.

The engagement, according to the students and staff of the school, was an immense eye-opener, which will guide them to make an informed decision when they eventually get behind the voting booth come December 7, 2024.
