The Elections Security Taskforce, led by the Inspector General of Police (IGP) Dr. George Akuffo Dampare, has announced plans to streamline security arrangements at collation centers for Ghana’s 2024 general elections.

The move aims to prevent the chaos that marred the 2020 elections, which resulted in the deaths of eight people, mainly at collation centers.

Dr. Dampare revealed that only accredited individuals will be granted access to collation centers to maintain order and transparency.

Speaking at a meeting with leaders of Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) at the Police Headquarters, he assured stakeholders of ongoing collaborations with the Electoral Commission (EC) to implement this initiative effectively.

Zero Tolerance for Troublemakers

The IGP warned that individuals or groups attempting to disrupt the peace would be dealt with decisively.

He emphasized that some political actors wanted for offenses during previous elections would face justice, saying, “We know where you are, and you cannot evade accountability forever.”

Dr. Dampare stressed the importance of maintaining peace during and after the elections, stating, “We have only one Ghana. No one will be allowed to jeopardize its stability.”

Highlighting preparations for the 2024 elections, the IGP disclosed that the Police Service has developed a comprehensive 5,400-page security blueprint covering all aspects of electoral security. This document addresses the unique challenges posed by Ghana’s demographic and democratic evolution, ensuring the elections are peaceful and orderly.

According to Dr. Dampare, collation centers have been identified as critical areas prone to disorder. To address this, the Taskforce plans to enforce strict access controls, ensuring that only authorized personnel—such as election officials, party agents, accredited media, and observers—are present. Collation centers will also be equipped with adequate seating arrangements and facilities to promote orderly processes.

Enhanced Transparency and Organization

The new measures will focus on creating a well-structured environment at collation centers, minimizing confusion and opportunities for violence. This includes clearly defined access points, an invitation-only policy, and proper coordination between stakeholders.

“We are committed to ensuring that the collation process is transparent, secure, and free from unnecessary interference. These steps are essential to safeguard the integrity of our elections and foster public trust in the democratic process,” the IGP noted.

Dr. Dampare called on all stakeholders, including political parties, the media, and civil society, to support the Police Service’s efforts. “Together, we can make the 2024 elections a model for peace and security in Africa,” he concluded.
