A professor at the Political Science Department of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, Prof Adu-Gyamfi, says the visa restrictions introduced by the United States of America are to protect their interest.
“All Western countries take decisions to protect their interest and ensure that any policy or restrictions they introduce benefit them. They always think of themselves first,” he stated.
He says the decision is aimed at preventing criminals from entering their territory.
“No country will allow criminals to move from their country and destabilize the peace in another country. Although it seems they are helping Ghana in the broader view, they are protecting their interest,” he stated.
Professor Adu-Gyamfi says there is a need for the Electoral Commission, political parties, voters and all other stakeholders to ensure a peaceful election this year.
“The whole world is watching us, the Electoral Commission, presidential candidates, parties, voters and all stakeholders should prioritize peace in the upcoming elections,” he stated.
