Ghanaians must ensure peaceful and transparent election- Dr Tetteh

Dr Lawrence Tetteh, a UK-based Ghanaian International Evangelist on Wednesday called on Ghanaians to ensure peaceful and transparent general election devoid of any underhand manoeuvres be it physical or spiritual.

He said Ghanaians have a collective responsibility to ensure that the country remains solidly united.

“I believe that it is the preserve of the Lord Almighty to enthrone leaders and his infallible nature is proof that he has never erred in selecting suitable leaders each time we go to the polls,” he said.

Dr Tetteh made the call at a press conference, in Accra on the Ghana for Christ crusade on the theme: “The Goodness f God.”

The crusade being convened by Dr Tetteh, will take off on Thursday March 22 to Saturday, March 24 at 1800 hours every day at the Accra Sports Stadium and will co- host Reverend Paul Naughton from Benny Hinn Ministries in the UK

The crusade will be characterised by divine visitation to transforming lives, anointing and healing service.

Dr Tetteh explained that the crusade is a clarion call for Ghanaians to embrace Christ because he is behind the peace that is prevailing in the country.

He therefore asked the citizenry to be crusaders for peace.

“We must all call on Christ, the Prince of Peace to take absolute control and steer the affairs of the nation before, during and after the elections.”

Dr Tetteh, who is also the Founder of Worldwide Miracle Outreach, said the crusade also marks the 25th anniversary of his ministerial life.

He said the crusade has been an annual event since 1991, which had been obviously successful, bringing many people to the knowledge of Christ.

Dr Tetteh said Ghanaians cannot pretend to be a God fearing nation when negative attitudes such as insults, blackmailing, stealing and lack of respect has permeated the society.

He said every nation needs Christ “and a nation without Christ would be in crises”.

Dr Tetteh stressed that the industrial revolution was through Christ who brought light to transform the darkness of the world.

He attributed rape, homosexuality, stealing and abnormal behaviors as a result of the rejection of Christ and called on Ghanaians to hold on to Christ in order not to lose the values and norms governing the country.

Dr Tetteh noted that Ghana needs a massive front to forge ahead and therefore urged the media to be sensitive in their reportage to facilitate national integration.**
