The Founder and General Overseer of Action Chapel International, Archbishop Nicholas Duncan-Williams, has called on the government to prioritize alleviating the hardships faced by Ghanaians.
He expressed deep concern over the challenges experienced by Ghanaians and highlighted the prevalence of suffering among the population.
During a meeting in Accra on Monday, May 20, with representatives of the Christian Ecumenical Council and Flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) John Dramani Mahama, Archbishop Duncan-Williams emphasized the importance of maintaining peace to prevent violence ahead of the 2024 elections.
The Archbishop also noted the trend of healthcare professionals leaving the country in search of better opportunities abroad, underscoring the need for immediate action to address the root causes of these difficulties. He urged for transparency and fairness in managing the issues to prevent Ghanaians from becoming refugees in other countries.
Addressing the audience, Archbishop Duncan-Williams stated, “There is too much pain and suffering in this country. All our doctors and nurses are leaving this country. And we just pray that things will be well handled and managed with transparency and fairness so that we will not end up being refugees in any other country.” He also warned against underestimating the resilience of Ghanaians, stating, “nobody should think that the Ghanaian is very gentle, I don’t like trouble human being, It is not true.”
