Today is world press freedom and it will be celebrated under the theme: the role of media in election and democracy.
Democracy is fast gaining grounds in the world. Especially here in Ghana, we have had a relatively stable democracy in this 4th Republic. We couldn't have gotten here without the massive role of the Press. The press has indeed guided our elections through monitoring.
The Press has also suffered a lot of violence in their coverage of elections in Ghana and the world as a whole. This acts especially in Ghana has the tendency to destroy the beautiful Democracy we have built over the years.
As we mark World Press Freedom, it's our prayer that Government will continue to deepen its protection for the Press. We will also like to Pressure government to deal speedily with all the cases of attack against Pressmen. We salute all the men and women of the Press.
