He said as this year is dedicated for electing the country’s next president and parliamentarians, saying “destiny calls on all of us to manifest our political matu­rity as we go into the electoral processes so that we bequeath to ourselves the development that we deserve.”

Apostle Amponsah-Frimpong made the admonishment at the Sakumono CAC to climax the Anim’s week celebrations on the theme: ‘Equipping Our Children to Become a Blessing to the Nations.’

The programme is celebrated through the children ministry of the church throughout the coun­try to inculcate in them the life values of the founder and also to be abreast of the history of the church.

Apostle Amponsah-Frimpong also called on the Electoral Com­mission (EC) to be a fair arbiter and independent, believing that it was capable enough to render a transparent, free and fair electoral process acceptable by all parties.

He also stated that this was a time that Ghanaians must showcase their maturity to their brothers and sisters on the African continent, proving to the whole world that African has come of age and is capable of managing his own affairs without any external intervention.

Apostle Amponsah-Frimpong also urged the political parties to play by the rules of the game respecting one another, loving and placing Ghana above their own partisan interest.

He further encouraged Gha­naians, especially the Christian community to play their respec­tive roles in order to ensure that Ghana has gotten herself a peaceful transition that will usher her into the next level of prosperity and greater growth.

Apostle Amponsah-Frimpong also exhorted the National Peace Council, whom he said are a peo­ple of renowned who God has strategi­cally placed to render sincere services to the nation by upholding the truth and to encour­age the electoral commis­sion and the Polit­ical parties to do the right thing in the elec­tions for Ghana to become the winner.

“As we are in an election year, Christians must promote the culture of peace and transparen­cy. We must also work harder as believers, ensuring sincerity at the work place and being conscientious to do the right thing,” he stated.

The chairman of the church prayed for a peace­ful elections as well as for the children in the country to grow and become good future leaders and also a blessing to the nation.
