Ghana’s government approves and supports constitutional proposals to change rules for presidential elections. Multiple reports say the government backs extending the presidential term from four years to five years. The proposals also reduce the minimum age requirement for presidential candidates, lowering it to 35. The changes are presented as part of an adjustment to Ghana’s current constitutional framework governing how long presidents serve and who is eligible to run for the presidency. The reports describe Ghana as maintaining continuous democratic governance under its existing constitutional order. Both outlets report that the relevant proposal is accepted by the government and is linked to the same two major policy shifts: a longer presidential tenure and a lower eligibility age for candidates. The coverage does not specify in the excerpts whether the proposals require further parliamentary or public approval steps, nor does it detail the timelines for implementation.
