The Christian Council of Ghana (CCG) has stated that politicians and the church need not be rivals but rather collaborate to serve Ghanaians.

General Secretary of CCG, Rev Dr. Kwabena Opuni-Frimpong who spoke with Class FM’s Prince Minkah on the Executive Breakfast Show on Monday September 12 emphasised the need for healthier relationships between the two indicating that “we are not at war and the seeming tension between the two in our part of the world must be addressed”.

According to him, the parties need each other, adding that religious leaders must devise ways to use religion to serve the people.

“What do not need to add to the tension and the challenges we are going through,” he added.

He advised religious leaders to serve as guides and “journey with their members who are into politics because they are part of us and not enemies to religious leader. They are the best people we have, they are members that we have nurtured and taught in church and by God’s grace they are up there to serve the bigger interest of society”.
