  "summary": "Professor H. Kwasi Prempeh, Chairman of the Constitutional Review Committee, has cautioned Ghana's political leaders against drafting constitutional and governance reforms based on their current political fortunes. He argues that today's governing party could easily become tomorrow's opposition, and thus, reforms should be framed with future generations in mind rather than the immediate interests of governments or opposition parties. Professor Prempeh emphasized that political power is never guaranteed and that governments and opposition parties regularly exchange roles through democratic elections.",
