He argued that the Peace Council cannot keep silent in the midst of all that is going on and expect to be good relationship between all.
Speaking on Accra-based Citi FM he said “I am a very prayerful man like many other Ghanaians but you cannot just presume the peace of God when he has given us a head. Let there be justice and then peace will prevail. I pray upon the Peace Council to come out and speak before they [Peace Council] later come out to say let there be peace.”
The EC filed a suit at the Supreme Court praying that an earlier ruling by an Accra High Court asking them to allow the Dr Nduom correct the mistakes on his nomination form be quashed.
Some of the disqualified parties have headed to court seeking the court to nullify the decision taken by the EC.
But Ocquaye believes that the Peace Council cannot watch ideal and do nothing in this matter. He argued that they should not wait the issues to get out of hand before acting.
