Tell them to bring their children from the USA, UK, Canada, and other countries to come and fight for them because you are not ready to die for them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen they give you money, take it because the money belongs to all Ghanaians, but do not engage in any political violence because no politician will care for you when you are injured or care for your family when you are dead,\u201d the youth leaders said on Rainbow Radio Accra.<\/p>\n<p>On his part, the Head Pastor of the Christ Apostolic Church International, Prophet Alex Amankona, also indicated that one party has always been declared a winner in any election; hence, the regular violence and brutalities in electioneering periods must be stopped to create sanity in the country for development.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn every election, only one person will win, so politicians should keep in mind that they will either win or lose when they go to the polls.
