Hajia Ajara Rafai, a member of the National Commission for Civic Education, has urged all to act with responsibility on voting day to prevent trouble.
She said anything likely to stoke tension and confusion must be avoided and invited chiefs and religious leaders to help persuade the youth, not to hang around the polling centres, after casting their ballot.
Hajia Rafai was speaking at separate durbars held by the Commission to highlight the need for peace at Kuntanase and Tetrefu in the Bosomtwe District.
The durbars were held under the theme, "Promoting peace in December 2012".
Hajia Rafai called for political tolerance and asked the people not to allow themselves, to be divided on the basis of party affiliation.
Mr Alhassan Yakubu, the NCCE Ashanti Regional Director, drew attention to the need to respect the electoral rules and regulations to avoid prosecution.
He advised the electorate to refuse to be influenced with money and gifts to vote against their conscience.
Nana Anthony Boateng, Regional Coordinator, Integrated Community Centres for Employable Skills (ICCES), appealed for more resources to aid the NCCE to effectively carry out its mandate of helping the people to have better understanding of the civic responsibilities.
