Prophet Kwabena Tawiah, founder of the Church of Rabbi has bemoaned
the high level of murders in the country particularly ritual killings.
He said Ghana appeared to be turning into a country where some
criminals did not place value on human lives and that is putting fear in the
public.
“We are in trying times in this country and it is up to all
religious people particularly Christians to rise up and pray unceasingly for
God’s intervention,” he told DAILY GUIDE on Wednesday.
Prophet Tawiah said that as the country gears up for the November general
elections some powerful politicians would attempt to incite sections of the
public particularly the youth to cause mayhem but in the end they would not succeed.
He said “God will give Ghana a good leader to return the country to
its glorious days. What God has said shall come to pass!”
Prophet Tawiah said the peace Ghanaians are looking for would not
manifest if the people did not disclaim violent politicians and ‘nation
wreckers’.
He suggested a continuous education of supporters of all political
parties to tolerate dissenting views
He said the current crop of politicians had been a disappointment to
the future development of the country saying “if our forefathers were able to
put structures in place for them to become influential people today, then why
are they denying the future generation the chance to also prepare themselves
for the tasks ahead.”
He said the practice where politicians and parties formed vigilante
groups was threatening the survival of Ghana’s democracy.
The Prophet also bemoaned the deafening silence of many influential
pastors and other traditional leaders on the rots going on in the country and
said the country will continue to sink until they all rise up and pointed out
some of the faults.
“Look at what is happening at the Public Accounts Committee of
Parliament. Sometimes, you feel like there is nobody in this country to punish
these treasury looters.”
He appealed passionately to the Electoral Commission Chairperson to
ensure transparency and fairness in the November elections.
“You can’t have a situation where the poor and the vulnerable would queue
at night to vote only for somebody to sit at the strongroom and change the
verdict of the people.”
