  • Preliminary Statement
    AFRICAN UNION UNION AFRICAINE UNIÃO AFRICANA AFRICAN UNION ELECTION OBSERVATION MISSION TO THE TO THE 7 DECEMBER 2020 PRESIDENTIAL AND PARLIAMENTARY ELECTIONS IN GHANA PRELIMINARY STATEMENT 9 DECEMBER 2020 1 I. INTRODUCTION 1. Ghanaians went to the polls on 7 December 2020 to elect a President and Members of the Legislators. These were the eighth elections under the Fourth Republic since returning to civilian rule. The elections were held within the context of the COVID-19 pandemic which required the Electoral Commission (EC) to put in place unprecedented preparatory measures. 2. Upon invitation from the Government of Ghana and the EC and as part of its mandate to deepen democratic governance in Africa, the African Union (AU) intended to deploy 35 observers. However, due to COVID-19 travel restrictions and requirements in some member states, only 21 Short Term Observers (STOs) drawn from members of Pan African Parliament, representatives from Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) and independent election experts from African Union member states managed to join the Mission. 3. The STO Mission was led by His Excellency Kgalema Motlanthe, Former President of South Africa, assisted by Ambassador Minata Samate Cessouma, the AU Commissioner for Political Affairs. 4. The goal of the African Union Election Observer Mission (AUEOM) was to make an independent, objective and impartial assessment of the electoral process in accordance with the provisions of the 2007 African Charter on Democracy, Elections and Governance (ACDEG) and the 2012 OAU/AU Declaration of Principles Governing Democratic Elections in Africa, as well as the Constitution and the Electoral Laws of the Republic of Ghana.

  • Akatsi North District
    AKATSI NORTH DISTRICT Copyright © 2014 Ghana Statistical Service ii PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT No meaningful developmental activity can be undertaken without taking into account the characteristics of the population for whom the activity is targeted. The size of the population and its spatial distribution, growth and change over time, in addition to its socio-economic characteristics are all important in development planning. A population census is the most important source of data on the size, composition, growth and distribution of a country’s population at the national and sub-national levels. Data from the 2010 Population and Housing Census (PHC) will serve as reference for equitable distribution of national resources and government services, including the allocation of government funds among various regions, districts and other sub-national populations to education, health and other social services. The Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) is delighted to provide data users, especially the Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies, with district-level analytical reports based on the 2010 PHC data to facilitate their planning and decision-making. The District Analytical Report for the Akatsi North District is one of the 216 district census reports aimed at making data available to planners and decision makers at the district level. In addition to presenting the district profile, the report discusses the social and economic dimensions of demographic variables and their implications for policy formulation, planning and interventions. The conclusions and recommendations drawn from the district report are expected to serve as a basis for improving the quality of life of Ghanaians through evidence- based decision-making, monitoring and evaluation of developmental goals and intervention programmes.

  • Accra: City Scoping Study
    ACCRA: CITY SCOPING STUDY By Ransford A. Acheampong (The University of Manchester) June 2021 ACCRA: CITY SCOPING STUDY 2 Accra is the capital city of Ghana, the national economic centre and the country’s main connection with the global economy.1 The city’s role within the electoral swing region of Greater Accra is vital in deciding who wins the presidential elections, making Accra an important political arena for national political elites. Accra faces complex challenges in key areas, including economic development, housing, energy, water and sanitation and transportation. The city’s vibrant sub-national-level politics is strongly connected to and shaped by national-level politics, acting both as opportunities for and barriers to addressing complex urban challenges. HISTORY Accra’s rise from a trading post to a major coastal urban centre was driven by booming maritime trade with Europeans from the 15th century and the subsequent establishment of castles and forts.2 In 1877 it became the headquarters of the British colonial administration and subsequently the capital of the British Crown Colony, Gold Coast, and then Ghana.3 Rural–urban migration intensified in the period immediately after the Second World War, and a number of migrant towns, squatter settlements and slums emerged. In 1958 the Accra masterplan, ‘Accra: A plan for the town’, was prepared to drive an ambitious modernisation and transformation agenda for the new independent Ghana.4 ACCRA AND GHANA’S URBAN SYSTEM As the capital city, Accra is the most important economic and political centre in Ghana. Officially, Accra today covers the approximately 139.7 km2 administrative area known as the Accra Metropolitan Area (AMA).5 The AMA is the most urbanised area within the Greater Accra Region, one of the 16 administrative regions in Ghana.
