Ghana - Calling upon the government of Ghana to redouble efforts to combat armed robbery and fraud, stem corruption and fight the lackadaisical attitude to work, Reverend Samuel Owiredu, the Kpassa District Pastor of the Apostolic Church of Ghana, called for harmony between the current government and its opposition. "If leaders succeed, most of the people succeed," the pastor exhorted in a sermon at a non-denominational Church in Kpassa, asking for prayers for the nation's leaders, all part of the conclusion of the national week of fasting and prayers.

He also charged the nation's youth to lead responsible lifestyles to reflect the image of God in them. Paul Levin Gyato, Nkwanta North District Chief Executive, entreated Ghanaians to practice humility, modesty and honesty, saying these are the virtues of good leadership.
