He asked the party to learn from what has happened,\u00a0adding that “violence cannot be a way of resolving political disputes in our country…”<\/span><\/p>\n

He advised the party to rather pitch their strength in the competition of ideas and surge forward rather than resorting to violence to resolve issues.<\/p>\n

“Our party has stood for ideas in the beginning. Even in the difficulties days, in the early difficult days , the ideas that animated the founders of our movement which are today’s ideas and the world is caught up in their ideas that Ghana should be a democratic state, governed by the rule of law. That is what they fought for and that is what we are trying to establish today,”he said.<\/p>\n

Adam Mahama was buried<\/a><\/strong><\/span>\u00a0last Saturday at Bolgatanga in the Upper East region.<\/p>\n
