President John Dramani Mahama is urging Christians and Muslims, including all people of faith, to dedicate three days to fast and pray for the nation ahead of the December 7 general elections.
The President wants this event to commence on Friday, December 2, 2016 through to Sunday, December 4, 2016.
The President is further urging all to dedicate their specific days of worship- Friday, Saturday and Sunday to pray to God to intercede for Ghana as the nation fast and pray for continuous peace and stability.
A statement signed and issued by Communications Minister, Dr. Edward Omane Boamah, and released on behalf of the President, Thursday, said “It is his belief that through fasting and prayers, supported by appropriate measures and actions on the part of all stakeholders, our dear nation will once again demonstrate to the world that Ghana is not only the beacon of hope for Africa’s Democracy but also the nation ready and willing to continue on the path of progress and prosperity for all.”
