Constitutional Review Debate: Do Ghana's Problems Need Constitutional Changes or Better Leadership?

The government's position on the Constitutional Review Committee report has sparked fresh debate over proposals to extend the presidential term to five years, lower the presidential age requirement to 35, elect Metropolitan, Municipal and District Chief Executives (MMDCEs), and reform Parliament. The discussion examines whether the recommendations will strengthen Ghana's democracy and governance or whether meaningful national progress depends more on political culture, civic education and accountable leadership than constitutional amendments. #mattersarising
