Agona Swedru, Jan 02, GNA- Reverend Emmanuel Kaatey, Pastor in-charge of Number two branch of Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) of Agona Swedru, has appealed to the local Zongo Community and indigenes to bury their differences to ensure peace and stability in town.
He said the conflict which erupted between the two groups must be put to rest so that
resources being spent on security and conflict management would be channeled in the
development of the Municipality.
Rev. Kaatey made the appeal when he delivered a sermon at a watch night Church service
to usher-in New Year at Swedru. He said where war and conflict exist, people suffer as development stalls. Rev Kaatey asked Agonas and Zongo Community in the Agona Swedru Municipality to
live in peace and foster unity to assist socio-economic advancement of the country. At Damascus Church at Agona Swedru, Rev. Paul Gyasi Acheampong cautioned the
youth to desist from smoking, drug abuse and social vices that could badly affect their
health and future. At Agona Mensakrom, Reverend Dadibo Acquah, Head of Twelve Apostles Church,
asked Ghanaians to pray for prosperity of the nation and God’s blessing for President J.E.A
Mills and his ministers.
He cautioned end-time pastors who used fallacious and other foul means to deceive and
rob their congregation of their money and valuable properties to stop the practice. Rev. Acquah called on the youth to respect the elderly and desist from violent means of
resolving issues but rather use dialogue to resolve their difference to ensure peace and
understanding to the country.
At Agona Swedru, Assemblies of God Church, Rev. Charles Arkoh-Nunoo asked
Ghanaians to support the government in its efforts at building a better country and stop “pull
him down attitude” which could devastate the economic well being of the country. Rev. Arkoh-Nunoo asked the people to stop complaining about the economic hardship
and work towards solid and sound economy. 02 Jan. 10
