The leadership of the Ghana Pentecostal and Charismatic Council (GPCC) has called for an end to the politicization of Ghana’s COVID-19 situation immediately.
According to GPCC, engaging in such actions in these critical moments will only negatively affect the nation’s fight and dim our chances at winning the fight against the virus.
The New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) have come under heavy criticisms in the manner in which they are conducting themselves by way of comments on Ghana’s COVID-19 situation.
The two parties are seen to be throeing political shots at each other, causing the country to lose focus on the fight against the virus.
Bishop Samuel Noi Mensah, an Executive Member of GPCC, described the behaviour of the two political parties as unpatriotic, disgraceful and called for an end to such acts.
“COVID-19 has no respect for people, politics, or prestige and therefore this is the moment we all have to rally behind one leader and to find how we can really deal with this global enemy that has attacked our society and our world and have really brought everything to a standstill. So for these two major political parties to turn it into partisan politics, it is embarrassing, it is disgraceful, the timing is wrong and that is why we are calling on them to cease-fire,” he said.
