Founder and General Overseer of Action Chapel International, Archbishop Nicholas Duncan-Williams, has called on the government to prioritize initiatives aimed at easing the hardships faced by the Ghanaian populace.
Expressing deep concern about the struggles of the Ghanaian people, Archbishop Duncan-Williams emphasized the widespread nature of the hardship, leading to significant discomfort and suffering among citizens.
Highlighting the concerning trend of healthcare professionals leaving the country in pursuit of better opportunities abroad, the Archbishop underscored the pressing need for effective measures to address the underlying causes of these difficulties.
During a meeting with John Dramani Mahama, the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), and members of the Christian Ecumenical Council in Accra on Monday, May 20, Archbishop Duncan-Williams also stressed the importance of maintaining peace to prevent violence during the upcoming elections.
In addition to advocating for peace, Archbishop Duncan-Williams emphasized the necessity of coordinated efforts to ensure socioeconomic stability and well-being, thereby reducing the likelihood of Ghanaians being forced to seek refuge in foreign countries due to internal strife.
“There is too much pain and suffering in this country. All our doctors and nurses are leaving this country. And we just pray that things will be well handled and managed with transparency and fairness so that we will not end up being refugees in any other country.”
“Because without proper fairness, honesty, and transparency, things may fall out of hand. And may I say this, that nobody should think that the Ghanaian is very gentle, I don’t like trouble human being, It is not true.”
