Election campaign must be susbstantive on issues – ChurchThe Anglican Diocese of Kumasi has asked the political parties and their supporters to engage in a more healthy election campaign, substantive on issues to aid voters to make the right decision on voting day. This was contained in a communique issued by the diocesan church at the end of its 18th synod and signed by the Primate and Archbishop of the Church of the Province of West Africa, the Most Reverend Professor Daniel Yinkah-Sarfo. The church said, it was important for all to be patriotic – put the nation ahead of any other interest to sustain the peace. It asked that the Electoral Commission (EC), as referee of the coming elections “should remain patently neutral, fair and focused in the elections”. It underlined the need for the church to give voice and hope to the poor and the vulnerable.
