They don\u2019t really care about the society any longer\u201d, Rev Fayose, worriedly expressed this to the Ghana News Agency in an interview on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>He said: \u201cwe want to remind them that when our Lord Jesus Christ came to the world, one of the things he did was to serve God and Humanity.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd so, as politicians, entrusted with the mandate to take care of the people, that should be their principal concern and not to appease their political affiliations and themselves\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Rev Fayose has asked Christians to remember to emulate the big sacrifice Jesus Christ made for them as the world marks Easter, an important event for most Christians all over the world.<\/p>\n<p>He said the celebration of Easter was about forgiveness, giving and sacrificing, and about the love of God, who sent his son to die for the world and to reconcile it unto himself.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>General News of Friday, 19 April 2019 Source: Ghananewsagency.org 2019-04-19 File Photo The Reverend Dr Cyril Fayose, General Secretary of the Christian Council of Ghana, has expressed concern over the seemingly political polarisation in the country as Ghana prepares to go to the polls next year.
