Mr Mohammed A. Yakubu, Chairman of the DIPDC said dividing the Ghanaians on party lines would eventually result in an ungovernable society for whoever emerged winner of the December elections.

He gave the advice on Thursday during a meeting of the DIPDC and the District Election Taskforce Committee at Kpone on the Greater Accra Region. He reiterated that going for an election should not be seen as preparing to go to war stressing that "election is not a war".

Mr Yakubu, who is also the Kpone-Katamanso District Coordinating Director, reminded politicians that voters would only choose a leader to rule the people therefore campaigns geared towards creating confusion and divisions among the people must not be encouraged.

He asked; who would the politicians govern after they have plunged the country into chaos because of their quest to win at all cost? He commended political activists in the District for organising their activities in a peaceful manner and encouraged them to educate their supporters to eschew all forms of violence and acts that could fuel confusion.

The DIPDC chairman stated that the Committee which was formed by the National Commission for Civic Education (NCCE) and the Assembly had representatives from all stakeholders in the district.

He noted that the Committee would be meeting forthrightly, would identify and discuss possible issues that could escalate into violence and misunderstanding. Mr Oliver Agbenyo, Kpone-Katamanso District NCCE Director, urged Ghanaian voters to maintain their dignity by voting peacefully as they did during the previous elections.

Mr Agbenyo also appealed to political parties to portray themselves as law abiding in order for their followers to do so. Mr Isaac Kwame Antwi, Tema Metropolitan NCCE Director, appealed to the Electoral Commission to reduce the filling fee for women and the disabled.

Mr Antwi said the NCCE's engagement with vulnerable groups revealed that they want the amount slashed as an incentive to get more women and disable persons to participate fully in the elections.
