In every community there is bound to be greedy people who are always in the minority but very powerful in society. These greedy people need to be put in check else, majority of the people in the society will be deprived of their basic necessities of life, majority of the people will be poorer and poorer and they will be trampled upon by the greedy people and eventually become slaves in their own motherland. The few greedy individuals will be amassing wealth excessively to the detriment of majority of the people in the nation. In such a situation, the society or nation will be marching time and cannot move forward in rapid development for the good of all. In order that the greedy may be put in check so as to prevent them from toying with the peace, happiness, prosperity and destiny of the nation, God in a very special way, chooses some people in the nation, both men and women, and endow them with special courage and makes them the voice of the voiceless, the defenders of the defenseless and the protectors of the poor in the society or nation. These chosen men and woman of God are supposed to oppose injustice that deprives humanity of sustainable peace, happiness and prosperity. They are even supposed to call for the removal of the powers that be especially when they have brought untold hardships, to God’s children (Jeremiah 1:10 & 18 – 19).If the chosen men and women of God refuse to voice out the injustice in society and the people perish, God has no other choice but to punish them for refusing to voice out the injustice in society. (Ex 33: 7 – 9) After fifty one years ( 51years) of independence, majority of Ghanaians still lack the basic necessities of life; simple refuse or filth management has become a huge problem for us, consequently, filth or refuse is engulfing our villages, towns and even our capital city, leading to all kinds of epidemics. So many people are suffering economically, socially, politically and even legally because of the complex nature of our legal systems. As majority go through such a hell in Ghana, few individuals are enjoying excessively and getting richer and richer each passing day to the detriment of the majority of people and this is happening as a result of greediness. The greediness and manipulation and exploitation of the poor masses is getting out of hand simply because those who are suppose to be the voice of the voiceless, the defenders of the defenseless and the protectors of the poor who are in the majority in Ghana, do not want to be branded as doing politics or perceived to be partisan. Consequently, when party A says 1+1 = 2 and then Party B says 1 + 1 = 3, many of those who are suppose to be the voice of the voiceless just simply look on and the nation gets more confused to the advantage of the greedy individuals in the nation. In the midst of this confusion, the greedy then take advantage of the silence of the watchmen and woman of the nation ( Ex 35 :7 – 9) and milk the poor masses to abject poverty and some just die out of pure abject poverty. I would like to encourage all those who have accepted the call to be the voice of the voiceless, the defenders of the defenseless and the protectors of the poor masses, not to look the other way, in pretense, and allow greedy people to have their field day in politics or partisan politics. 1 + 1 is always 2 and cannot be 3, and this truth needs to be proclaimed in season and out of season and without fear or favour. The proclamation has no time limit and it is not time bound. Please never allow partisan politics to seal your mouths and stop you from preventing greedy people from tinkering with Ghana’s God given enviable peace and throwing dust into the eyes of the poor masses. Even when people desert you and brand you as been partisan for proclaiming the truth in season and out of season, do not be worried at all, because your Lord and Master who chose you was branded as Beelzebul , the chief of the demons ( Mark 3:22) and deserted ( Jn 6:66)/ For those who believe in politics of lies and therefore tell the masses terrible political lies and get whatever they want in Ghana, I would like to encourage them to be mindful of the fact that, it is only the truth that can help us to sustain Ghana’s God given enviable peace and not lies or injustice. Sustainable peace does not flourish in an environment charged with terrible injustice. Credit: Rev. Fr. Ignatius Amponsah, E.Mail: Difficultcat2@yahoo.com
