Politicians cautioned against dividing the country


From Ghana-

Political leaders have been urged to avoid any evil agenda to divide the nation along religious and ethnic lines for their political convenience.

Reverend Canon Oscar Amoah of the Anglican Church in Kumasi, who made the call, reminded politicians that there could not be peace, prosperity and progress, if the people lived in hostility.

"This is why we should all accept to uphold the unity of the nation and work together to make things better for all of us."

Rev. Canon Amoah was delivering the sermon at a watch-night service at the Saint Anglican Church at Chirapatre in Kumasi, to usher in year 2012.

He noted that the upcoming general elections would be crucial to the peace and stability of the country, and appealed to all key actors and their followers to play by the rules of fairness.

Delivering the sermon at the Brotherhood Church Temple at South Suntreso, the Spiritual Head, Primate S.K. Adofo, admonished the congregation to have faith in God.

He asked them to thank and praise God for his mercies and to pray for peace and national stability ahead of the elections.
