Elections in Ghana

by Anna Wasserfall

Will the country remain a "democratic beacon" in an increasingly unstable region?

The election campaign in Ghana is well underway shortly before the presidential and parliamentary elections on December 7. Temperatures of over 30 degrees Celsius are not stopping people in the capital Accra from standing on the roadside for hours and waving flags and posters with the colours and symbols of their party. The red, white and blue colours of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the red, green, black and white colours of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) - the two major political parties in the country - are the dominant colours in the city these days. The growing tension among the population is clearly noticeable given the critical economic situation in the country.
