Reverend John Kwesi Baidoo, Minister in-charge of Bibiani Methodist Church has appealed to Christians not to use the pulpit to preach politics that could lead to rancour, acrimony and division among the congregation.
He urged Christians to refrain from corruption and other social vices that affected socio-economic development but be role models for honesty, patriotism and love for each other to foster national development.
Rev. Baidoo made the appeal during a thanksgiving service for Mr Christopher Addae, Member of Parliament for Bibiani-Anhwiaso-Bekwai, at Bibiani.
Similar service was organised at Roman Catholic and Christ Apostolic Church in Bibiani.
Mr Addae expressed appreciation to God for his re-election and called for collaboration between the church and State for effective national development.
He appealed to Ghanaians to bury their political differences and unite to build a better Ghana.
