Ghana first; Cease fighting - Agyinasare
The founder of the Perez Chapel International,
Bishop Charles Agyinasare, has appealed to
supporters of the New Patriotic Party and the
National Democratic Congress to cease the pockets
of clashes which could derail the peace of Ghana.

Supporters of the two opposing parties have
engaged in clashes in some parts of the country as
NPP surrogates seize state facilities being run by
perceived NDC members while others allegedly beat
up members of the opposition.

Bishop Agyinasare is cautioning supporters to be
moderate with their celebrations while cautioning
everyone to see themselves as “Ghanaians
first”.

According to him, protecting the peace of the
country during the post-election period is
paramount to the development of Ghana.

“Don’t forget irrespective of your political
persuasion, we belong to one big family –
Ghana… Precious one, the election is over, let's
get on with our lives as one people,” the
respected preacher said in a sermon.

He stressed that the election must not “change
our commitment to work for peace”, adding the
country must not be divided over the polls.

Bishop Agyinasare has therefore appealed to
Ghanaians to co-exist irrespective of political
persuasion or ethnic background.

“In victory we should not forget others have
lost,” he admonished, hence emphasised the need
for everyone to tolerate each other and take the
“feelings of others into consideration.”

The New Patriotic Party’s Nana Akufo-Addo was
declared winner of the December 7, 2016 elections
having polled over 5 million votes representing
53% while incumbent President John Mahama had 44%
from a little over 4 million votes.
