The work of Gabriel Kwamigah-Atokple Tanko, the Volta Region's representative on the Council of State, is being highlighted.
The Council of State is important for Ghana's democracy. It offers advice to the President on how to do his job well.
This advisory body is set up by the 1992 Constitution. It is explained in Chapter 9, Articles 89 to 92.
The Council works mostly away from daily arguments between political parties. However, it still plays a key role.
Mr. Tanko's time on the Council is being examined. His efforts to represent the Volta Region are part of this discussion.
