Bishop Dr Emmanuel Kwadwo Boah charges pastors to avoid partisan politics

As the December 7 general elections get near, a Kumasi based renowned Bishop, Bishop Dr. Emmanuel Kwadwo Boah has stressed the need for the pastors who strongly support policies of certain political parties to refrain from the act.

The clergy noted that the act contravenes the scriptures citing that the Lord Jesus Christ of whom christians follow him was not a politician.

He said the presence Christ was to preach the gospel and salvage mankind from the bondage of Satan.

Bishop Dr. Emmanuel Kwadwo Boah who is the President of the Divine Key Believers International and General Overseer of the Prayer Praise Chapel International gave the advise on Saturday June 22,2024 at the occasion marking his bishopric ordination and consecration ceremony and 25th anniversary of his dedicated service in ministry.

 

Bishop Dr. Emmanuel Kwadwo Boah noted that as pastors it is not our responsibilities to join or support party A or B on political issues, instead we should remain neutral and pray for peaceful elections to glorify God.

On the occasion the Minister of God sounded a word of admonition to Ghanaians to promote peace and unity devoid of attitudes that can raise credibility problems in the society.

According to him, act of violence is dangerous in the period of elections emphasizing that if someone’s alleged bad behavior generate into political tension in the country it would be all Ghanaians who would suffer or feel the negative impact, hence Bishop Dr. Emmanuel Kwadwo Boah is charging the good people of Ghana to smoke peace pipe to ensure violence free elections in the December 7 general elections.

The clergy also took the opportunity to advise politicians to control their tongues when they mount platforms to campaign for votes.

He therefore concluded with a call on the leaders of political parties to advise their followers to remain calm, peaceful and know that Ghanaians are one people with one common destiny and should not allowed themselves to be divided by party politics.
