Right Reverend Hilliard Dogbe, the Presiding Bishop of the A.M.E. Zion Church, Western West Africa Episcopal District, has made a call for peaceful elections as Ghana prepares for the 2024 polls. In his address, he urged Ghanaians to refrain from engaging in personal attacks, negativity, and divisive politics that could disrupt the relative harmony and stability of the country.
Bishop Dogbe emphasized that engaging in politics of insult and negativity does not contribute to the progress of the nation. Instead, he encouraged citizens to listen to the various candidates and fulfill their civic responsibility. He highlighted the importance of civility in politics, as it fosters a healthy political environment and upholds Ghana’s democratic process.
He also stressed the significance of maintaining a close relationship with God, urging individuals to go beyond mere church attendance and adhere to the principles of His word and ethical standards. As the New Year unfolds, marked by anticipated difficulties, he encouraged reliance on the power of God to navigate challenges with unwavering faith.
