The Presiding Bishop of the Lighthouse Chapel International, Bishop Dag
Heward-Mills, has urged President John Dramani Mahama to ensure
equitable and fair distribution of wealth, resources and opportunities.
He stressed that political, religious and ethnic persuasions should not determine the success or failure of an individual.
As a result, he appealed to the National Democratic Congress (NDC)
government to, in the name of national cohesion, offer the main
opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) followers at least 30 per cent of
all business contracts.
The respected man of God offered the advice when delivering a sermon at
the special watch night service held at the Qodesh, Accra, to usher in
the New Year.
“The reason businesses don’t do well in Ghana is that people are not
faithful in what they do and therefore incur debts instead of posting
profits due to the activities of certain characters in position,” he
stressed.
To Bishop Heward-Mills, such a gesture will douse the anger and tensions that always exist after elections.
Against that backdrop, he called on President Mahama to work
assiduously to maintain the existing peace and initiate policies that
will help better the lives of the citizenry.
