The Ghana Journalists Association (GJA) Elections Committee wishes to inform all stakeholders and members of the Association that the current Elections Calendar for the upcoming national and regional elections—initially scheduled for Monday, June 30, 2025—is under review.
According to the original calendar, the outcome of the vetting process was expected to be published on Friday. However, the Committee has received a number of petitions challenging the eligibility of some candidates, which it is carefully reviewing and investigating.
Additionally, an aspirant for the position of Vice-Chairman in the Volta Region has withdrawn at the last minute, necessitating the re-opening of nominations for that particular position on Monday, June 9, 2025, for seven calendar days.
In light of these developments, critical electoral activities such as balloting for positions and other scheduled steps in the election process must be revised to ensure fairness, transparency, and compliance with the Association’s electoral guidelines.
The revised Elections Calendar will be published shortly, and we assure all members that the Committee is working diligently to address all issues in a fair and timely manner.
We thank all members for their patience and continued support as we work to uphold the integrity of the GJA electoral process.
Issued by: GJA Elections Committee
