The Commission said these threats of violence posed great danger to the country’s unity and stability.
Mr Alex Sackey, Eastern Regional Director of NCCE, said this at separate engagements with various security officers to mark this year’s constitution week celebration under the theme: ‘Unity and National Cohesion: The Role of the Security Services.”
The constitution week is being celebrated every year since 2001 and it usually starts on the 28th day of April which is of much significance to the history of the Fourth Republic being the date in 1992 on which Ghanaians voted massively in a referendum to accept the 1992 constitution, which subsequently came into effect on 7th January, 1993.

The National Commission for Civic Education (NCCE) as part of its first-quarter activities for 2021 is engaging organised groups in the Eastern Region on the duties of Members of Parliaments (MPs).
The Commission has also intensified Education on Covid-19, Anti-corruption education under the national framework known of the National Anti-Corruption Action Plan (NACAP), youth vigilantism and other related issues that threaten peace in the communities.
Mr Alex Sackey, Eastern Regional NCCE Director in an interview said the initiative was rolled out following an observation that people did not know the roles, duties, and responsibilities of MPs and due to this ignorance, put undue pressure on the legislators by their expectations and demands.
