"No Armagedon on December 7", is how the Daily Graphic titles its  editorial.  The paper says as the December polls draw closer, the atmosphere continues to be poisoned day in and day out by politicians who are seeking the mandate to govern.  According to the Graphic, the tension is further aggravated by the constant claim by the National Democratic Congress (NDC), that the ruling Party is planning to rig the  up-coming elections.  The paper re-echoes the words of the National Security Coordinator, Dr. Sam Amoo, that the elections would lead to a consolidation of our democratic governance and serve as a model for the rest of the countries in the sub-region, some of which have experienced violence and civil wars.  The paper urges all Ghanaians not to see the elections as a war but just a regular contest for the leadership of the country and have absolute faith that they will be conducted in peaceful manner.

Writing on the topic, "Development Through Science and Technology", the Vanguard says nature has endowed the world with resources which can be used to create wealth to make living conditions better for mankind.  According to the paper, to create wealth to improve the welfare of people, countries need to make use of Science and Technology in all spheres of life.  The paper is happy about the interaction between the presidential  candidate on one hand and the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research on the other, which are meant to unveil the vision of the presidential candidates for Science and Technology.

The Ghanaian Observer focuses on tougher sanction and Defensive Driving which are key elements in enforcing safety on our roads.  The paper says, road safety is a necessity if we have to survive as a nation and to maintain a productive labour force.  The paper expresses worry about the increasing death toll from road accidents within the last couple of years.  According to the paper, the Road Safety Commission has been doing well in creating awareness and educating road users, particularly,  drivers, on the need to play safe on the roads and not continuously  taking passengers’ lives for granted.  The Ghanaian Observer supports the need to drive defensively by taken into consideration lives of passengers and pedestrians.
