Parliament has set up a Committee to investigate alleged electoral violence in Ghana.
The four-member committee is tasked with the responsibility of probing alleged interferences by some members of the security agencies and some vigilante groups before, during and after presidential and general elections since 1993 resulting in injuries and loss of lives.
Members of the committee are Alexander Kwamina Afenyo-Markin, Frank Annoh-Dompreh, Samuel Atta Akyea and Osei Bonsu Amoah.
The committee will also investigate the ethnic, gender, regional and other sectional backgrounds of persons recruited into the security forces since January 1993, to establish the level of ethnic, regional and gender balance in the recruitment and appointment to such public offices and make appropriate recommendations.
