The Deputy Brong Ahafo Regional Minister, Mr. Justice Samuel Adjei has advised the youth to kick against actions that will undermine the peaceful atmosphere in the country.
Mr. Samuel Adjei speaking at 2016 Eid Ul-Fitr celebration in Sunyani called on opinion leaders and all stakeholders to call the youth to order to ensure peaceful elections.
“Mostly the youth are the targeted group when it comes to violence…let’s advice them to forgo such actions. Do not involve yourself in anything that will threaten security in the country.”
According to him, it’s imperative for all Ghanaians to fight against violence because any party that will emerge as a winner in the polls cannot execute their developmental plans for the country if there’s chaos.
“It is unnecessary to fight or insult ourselves because of our political affiliations. Politics is about development not violence. The mindset of every political party is to develop Ghana and not to destroy it,” he stated.
He assured that President John Dramani Mahama is ready to put all the necessary measures in place to ensure violence free elections.
“President Mahama is ready to protect all Ghanaians. Whether he loses or win…he will make sure that the peaceful atmosphere in Ghana is intact.”
The Deputy B/A Regional Minister advised the various political parties to desist from hate speech.
“Politics is not about insult…Politicians should use any opportunity given to them to preach what they can do for the country,” he enunciated.
