The West Mamprusi Municipal Directorate of the National Commission for Civic Education (NCCE) has embarked on a sensitization campaign in various communities to promote peaceful coexistence and national cohesion for development.
The initiative aimed to encourage residents to move past any conflicts or tensions that arose during last year’s general elections and focus on contributing to the country’s progress.
Communities visited included Wungu, Bulbia, Zua, Yama, Diibsi, Kpasenkpe, Sareba, Duu Silinga, Wulugu, and the Walewale Market.
Addressing community members through face-to-face meetings and public announcements, West Mamprusi Municipal NCCE Director, Thomas Imoro Issahaku, urged residents to embrace unity and reconciliation.
He emphasized the importance of setting aside grievances and accepting apologies where necessary, stating, “If Ghana develops, everyone benefits. Likewise, if the country does not progress, the impact is felt by all.”
He also called on the winning political party to involve all community members in development efforts, stressing the need for inclusive governance.
Additionally, he cautioned against discrimination toward minority ethnic groups, urging residents to foster mutual respect to prevent conflicts.
Other speakers at the event included NCCE Chief Field Officers Salifu Zeinab and Mohammed Alhassan, as well as Madam Ubeidatu Abubakari.
