President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, at the inauguration of the Law House delivered a powerful speech underscoring the paramount importance of law enforcement and the rule of law, especially in the context of the upcoming critical election year.
“In so saying, I want to use the opportunity of this platform to reassure the Ghanaian people that the law enforcement agencies of the state, including the Office of the Attorney-General, will do all within their power to ensure that law and order prevail in the country at all times, especially during this critical election year,” President Akufo-Addo asserted.
He emphasised that the ambitions of any political party or presidential candidate would not be allowed to compromise the nation’s hard-earned peace, security, and stability.
“It will not happen,” he declared emphatically.
Highlighting the nation’s robust legal framework, the President made it clear that laws on vigilantism and other relevant statutes would be rigorously enforced to safeguard the tranquillity of the country.
This unwavering commitment, he noted, was owed to the good people of Ghana, who have consistently demonstrated their deep attachment to peaceful democratic values.
The President also reflected on the significance of the Law House’s commissioning.
“Ladies and Gentlemen, the commissioning of the Law House is not just a celebration of a new building; it is a celebration of our collective commitment to the rule of law and justice. It is proof of our belief that a strong legal system is essential for the development and prosperity of our nation,” he said.
Looking to the future, President Akufo-Addo called for continuous adaptation and evolution of the legal system to meet the changing needs of society while maintaining a steadfast commitment to justice, fairness, and equality for all.
“The rule of law is not a static concept. It is a living principle that requires constant nurturing and vigilance,” he reminded the audience.
The President’s address resonated with a strong message of maintaining peace, security, and stability in Ghana, a nation renowned as a beacon of democracy on the African continent.
The inauguration of the edifice not only celebrated the new infrastructure but also reinforced Ghana’s dedication to the principles of justice and the rule of law, ensuring that peace and democratic values remain at the core of the nation’s development.
