The Greater Accra East Regional Superintendent of the Assemblies of God, Dr Joseph Baisie has called on stakeholders of the general election to come to a resolution with regards to the controversy surrounding the new voters’ registers.

Speaking at the second Regional Council meeting of the Greater Accra East of the Assemblies of God, he said Ghana has been a role model in democracy for decades and there is a responsibility on all who matters in the elections to ensure that the 2020 polls is conducted in a peaceful atmosphere.

Commenting on the issues of vigilantism in the country, the reverend charged political parties to as a matter of urgency append their signatures to the road map developed by the National Peace Council on vigilantism and urged them to not only append their signatures but stay committed to the road map for the peace of the country.

He further expressed worry over the increasing rate of corruption cases and allegations that tarnish the image of the country and called on all individuals to fight the menace from the system.

On the elections 2020, Rev Baisie said all parties must reach a compromise and ensure that the processes leading to the elections are peaceful.

Also addressing the participants, the General Secretary of AG, Dr Bismark Bansah, commended the church for assembling to address the vigilantism challenge in the country.

Rev Bansah, who spoke on behalf of the General Superintendent of AG, observed that the church's fellowship should be with the Holy Spirit which meant that the church prayed endlessly, committed herself to the word of God and forgave one another so that she could fight together as a strong entity.

“While some of our pastors are doing a good and commendable work, the same cannot be said of others, some are unfaithful to their churches, their spouses and the organisation, and these ungodly behaviours are bringing reproach to the Lord Jesus Christ. But the leaders are cracking the whip and would continue to expose such people to bring sanity into the organization.”

The Regional Council of the Greater Accra East of the Assemblies of God is an annual gathering of clergymen and women and other departmental heads that make the work of ministry possible in the region.

The meeting affords participants to review the church's activities in the past year and also plan new programs and strategies for the New Year.

At this year’s conference, there is a focus on church growth and expansion with a vision of 3000 projects to encourage the clergy to open new church branches.

In order to remain relevant and impact society, the church is also undertaking a capacity building for pastors and other departmental leaders to become agents of the church.
