President John Dramani Mahama has urged religious leaders to speak out against injustice and actively engage in national discussions on social and economic challenges.
Speaking during a fellowship with the clergy in the Ashanti Region, he emphasized the importance of fairness, accountability, and civic engagement in governance.
He stressed that justice should not be selective and called on national authorities and the judiciary to uphold fairness in their rulings.
“Justice must not be a source of worry but a guiding principle that ensures fairness for all men and women,” he stated.
Mahama also encouraged citizens to be bold in pointing out irregularities and advocating for what is right.
“Do not be afraid to speak up if you see things going wrong. If you see anything improper, don’t hesitate to bring it to our attention,” he urged.
Addressing Ghana’s socio-economic challenges, he noted that solutions require collective effort and called on religious institutions to play a key role in fostering unity, morality, and national development.
“The church has always been a force for good, and we must continue to work together for the betterment of our communities,” he added.
His remarks resonated with the gathering, as religious leaders have traditionally been key stakeholders in promoting peace, justice, and social stability in Ghana.
