Hwenapori (WN/R),
Jan 21, GNA – Elder Aaron Nkoah, Presiding Elder of the Church of Pentecost,
Maranatha Assembly at Hwenapori, a suburb of Bibiani, has advised Ghanaians to
choose leaders for the nation based on issues.
He said while they
prepared for the polls this year for presidential and parliamentary candidates,
it was imperative to avoid unhealthy partisanship and personal aggrandizements
and vote for leaders based on issues of national interest.
Elder Nkoah, who
gave the advice in an interview with the Ghana News Agency (GNA) at the weekend
also stressed the need for Ghanaians to assess the Aspirants and choose the
God-fearing ones.
“We need God-fearing
leaders who will die for the truth, in order to build a wealthy and peaceful
nation,” he stated.
The Presiding Elder
also urged Ghanaians to shun hypocritical attitudes as was displayed by the
Pharisees of Biblical days, stressing that such behaviours retarded progress in
any human endeavor.
“Ghana is for all
of us, so right from
our homes, schools, churches, workplaces, communities and the larger society, we should
acknowledge God, to grant us the right
frame of mind to display positive attitudes,to build a prosperous and peaceful nation,” he
admonished.
