The founder and leader of the Church of Divine Heart in Nkoranza, Bono East Region, Apostle Anthony Manu (Sofo Alhasan), has emphatically attributed Ghana's challenges to Christians' immoral behaviors, and not political leadership.
Everyone agrees that religion has a prominent social and political role in Ghana. Constitutionally, no political parties are allowed to base themselves on religious or ethnic concerns.
Delivering a message on Ghana's progress during an exclusive interview on Fabea FM with Apiah-Kubi, the man of God urged Ghanaians to shift their focus from blaming political leaders to seeking personal and spiritual transformation in the country.
He stated that the country's population of Christians, about 71%, should reflect on their attitudes in complying with government regulations.
"Majority of Ghanaians are Christians, but they sell commodities at high prices, which shows wickedness in rebuff," Apostle Anthony bemoaned.
Many Ghanaians express concern about what they regard as a serious decline in morality and integrity, at both elite and popular levels.
He added, "The change we need in Ghana will not take place with a change in government when we continue to cheat, engage in bribery, and focus on greediness. Let's not forget that the change we need is within us, and the problem is we, the people in God's house."
The decline is believed to fuel corruption, undermine national development, and diminish faith in democracy as the best available system of
government.
The renowned Apostle clarified that his statements were not politically motivated but rather an observation of his own.
Apostle Anthony also stressed the need to address dishonesty and lack of integrity in everyday lives and business dealings by citizens, especially Christians.
"Some pastors, chiefs, stakeholders, lawyers, businessmen, and women pay and accept bribes, meanwhile most of them are Christians," he cried out.
The Apostle argues that a close relationship between Ghana’s largest churches, make wake up and fight this act of immoral behavior which has attributed to the challenges in Ghana.
First, Apostle Anthony Manu wants undemocratically to impose a framework to control Ghanaians’ moral behaviour according to the church’s values and beliefs. Second, the Apostle's wants the two main political parties in Ghana to prioritise how to deal with morality and also put on proper measures to control Ghanaians regardless of their religious affiliation and of the leader's commitment to deal with corruption.
He concluded that a true transformation in Ghana must be done with justice.
Ultimately, Apostle Anthony's message emphasizes that Ghana's progress hinges on citizens' moral renewal and commitment to integrity, rather than solely on political change.
