“It is built on a commitment to reshape the political landscape for the betterment of Ghana through principles of truth, transparency, accountability, and civic responsibility. At the heart of the “No Masked Promises” campaign is a mission to unveil the truth behind political facades and a call to citizens to actively engage in the political process,” portions of the statement read.
Among other things, Dr. Sam Ankrah has urged young people to back his efforts to promote accountability and transparency.
“It encourages them to voice their concerns and actively participate in holding leaders and political hopefuls accountable for their promises. As a seasoned economist and investment banker, I lead this movement with the belief that active civic responsibility and
engagement are fundamental to a thriving democracy,” he pledged.
