Please find the killers- Police urged

The Global Evangelical Church at the weekend called on the Police Service and other security agencies to intensify efforts to combat the spate of unexplained killings that had hit the country in recent times. In a communiqué issued at the end of the 66th synod in Accra, the church further asked the police to provide security for all citizens of the country. The communiqué also touched on the 2008 elections and urged all political parties and politicians to exhibit the best democratic qualities of tolerance and transparency in their campaigns. They should also avoid attacks on each other to sustain the peace and stability the country had been enjoying. The synod also commended government’s educational reform programme and resolved to set up and strengthen the church’s education unit to cater for basic and tertiary education as a modest contribution to human resource development of the nation. On the energy crisis, the Church appealed to the government to move towards implementation of an energy policy that would involve using all available means of power generation such as hydro, nuclear, solar, biomass among others. Besides government should facilitate and encourage corporate bodies and organisations that have the capacity to develop their own energy supply to supplement the country’s efforts at energy production. The church held that these actions would go along way to provide electricity security that the country needed to put it on the path of sustainable development. In a sermon to round off the synod, Right Reverend Emmanuel Gbordzoe, the Moderator of the GEC asked Christians to avoid the wicked and shameful vices of homosexualism, lesbianism, armed robbery, rape and bribery, among others. He commended the government for its bold stand against the practices of homosexualism and lesbianism in the country. Reverend Gbordzoe encouraged the government not to relent in its efforts of punishing both foreigners and Ghanaians who indulged in such practices. The Moderator, Rev. Dr Gbordzoe was re-elected for another four-year term while Reverend Prince Tefe became the new Synod Clerk. Source: GNA
