POLITICIANS MUST GUARD AGAINST RECKLESS UTTERANCES (Page 17)

Story: Joe Okyere, Cape Coast

THE President of the University Teachers’ Association of Ghana (UTAG), University of Cape Coast, Mr Emmanuel Abole, has deplored the reckless utterances of some politicians which, if not checked, could have negative consequences on the peace and stability of the country.
Speaking at the end-of-year get-together of the association in Cape Coast, Mr Abole called on such politicians to be wary of such utterances and address issues that were of supreme interest to the country.
Mr Abole advised the electorate to beware and avoid such politicians, since their conduct proved that they were only interested in their personal gains and not to serve the people.
He called on the churches and other religious groups to use their platforms to preach and encourage peace for unity and harmony among Ghanaians.
The Dean of Graduate Studies, Professor Nana Opoku-Agyeman, advised members of the association against acts that could divide their rank and file, and remain united to fight for their welfare.
