Editor of the Insight newspaper, Mr. Kwesi Pratt Jnr. has said Ghanaians will remain united no matter what corrupt individuals will do to tarnish the good image of the nation.
He has also advised political parties to be fearless or forever remain silent on issues pertaining to national interest.
This he said will afford Ghanaians sound mind to elect good leaders.
Addressing a press conference in Accra on Tuesday in response to the recent comments made by Assin North Member of Parliament, Kennedy Agyapong, Mr. Pratt said people have inter married regardless of their political and tribal differences, therefore it is wrong for people to respond to war chants and kill themselves to satisfy selfish desires of politicians.
In an interview with Radio Gold Wednesday, he stressed that it is high time Ghanaians put a stop to nasty comments made by politicians, adding that politicians have for a long time taken the emotions of citizens for granted.
Politicians, Mr. Pratt said, can be very deceptive and it is important for every concerned citizen to dig into the roots of every political issue that pops up in the country.
He condemned the opposition New Patriotic Party’s idea to celebrate Kennedy Agyapong’s release on bail from police custody, saying it is wrong for people who beat war drums to be praised and be called heroes or heroines after their unlawful acts.
After all is said and done, he said, it is left for the ordinary Ghanaian to decide for himself the way forward for a better Ghana.
