\nKumasi , April 25, GNA – The Very Reverend Father Philip-Opoku Nyame, Parish Priest of the Saint Joseph ‘s Catholic Church, Pankrono, Kumasi , has reminded political leaders to resolve to play by the rules to make Election 2012, transparent, fair and credible.<\/p>\n
He said it was important they learned useful lessons from the unfortunate events in neighbouring Cote d’Ivoire to avoid any dangerous pitfalls.<\/p>\n
The Electoral Commission (EC) should do everything to make sure that problems that bedevilled the district level elections were not repeated.<\/p>\n
Very Rev Father Opoku-Nyame was celebrating the mass at Pankrono to climax the Easter celebration by the church.<\/p>\n
He advised the political parties to desist from using hired thugs to intimidate and harass perceived opponents.<\/p>\n
He said Ghana had become the beacon of hope to the rest of Africa and this should inspire all to work hard to strengthen its democratic governance through responsible conduct.<\/p>\n
Very Rev Father Opoku-Nyame urged Christians to use the Easter period for self-introspection to see where they might have fallen short and to make amends.<\/p>\n
They should also pray for peace in all troubled spots of the world.<\/p>\n
At the Amakom Saint Paul’s Catholic Church, the Rev Father Stephen Opoku counselled the youth to stay away from acts that could be ruinous to their future.<\/p>\n
He asked the people to let the period unite and reconcile them not only with God but with one another.<\/p>\n
He told them not to become obsessed with earthly possession and wealth but to rather focus on their salvation.<\/p>\n
