A former General Secretary of the Christian Council of Ghana, Rev. Dr. Kwabena Opuni-Frimpong, has said the actions of political parties and Ghanaians as a whole will determine the fate of the country after the December polls.

In an interview with Accra based Asempa FM, Dr Opuni Frimpong noted that bloodshed is not the best way to resolve grievances after the elections.

According to him, if anyone feels the Electoral Commission is not following due process, they should allow seek redress in the law court

“If we want to live peacefully after the elections, we must take action. The two major political parties, especially, should allow the law work.”

He further called on politicians to always remember that leadership actually a service and mind their utterances during the electioneering period.

“Leadership is service so why must there be bloodshed just because someone wants to be a leader. Our election must be devoid of violence no matter who it favours.”
