‘Don’t allow party affiliations to override national interest’

The Presiding Bishop of the Methodist Church of Ghana (PBMCG), the Most Reverend Titus K. Awotwi Pratt, has asked followers of political parties not to allow their party affiliations to override the national interest.

He said  political discourse should be guided by the national interest, urging politicians to learn how to convince their counterparts in a  diplomatic way without recourse to violence.

“The other person who does not speak my language, come from my region, does not worship with me, not in the same party, is not an enemy, he is only holding a different opinion, this opinion may be different but directed towards the same goal, “he explained.

Inauguration of Airport Circuit 

The PBMCG made the call at the inauguration of the Airport Circuit of the church, and the induction of its officers in Accra last Saturday. 

The theme of the occasion was “Building on the one foundation already laid.”

The new circuit is a combination of three societies, the Immanuel Methodist Society, East Airport; the Trinity Methodist Church, Marey Tsuru, and the Malik Preaching Post, Okpoigonno, making it the 28th circuit in the Grater Accra Region.
