Mahama

President John Mahama has addressed growing concerns over the increasing levels of crime and immorality in Ghana, even though over 90% of the population identifies as religious.

He emphasised that while these issues remain a challenge, the presence of the Church has played a significant role in curbing them, arguing that the situation could be far worse without its moral influence.

Speaking to the clergy in Kumasi on Sunday, President Mahama refuted claims that religion has failed to shape moral values in the country.

He asserted that, contrary to such arguments, the Church has been instrumental in guiding society.

“There is an often-heard argument that while more than 90% of Ghanaians profess to be persons of faith, immorality and crime are on the rise. My answer to those who make this argument is that the situation would probably have been far worse if there were no Church,” he remarked.

He further explained that the Church serves as a moral compass, shaping the behaviour of individuals and communities. Without its presence, he warned, society would risk plunging into chaos.

“Imagine a scenario where there was no Church, and people could act without any moral restraint. The situation would undoubtedly be worse. The churches are doing their best, and their efforts must be acknowledged,” he added.

President Mahama also stressed the importance of unity among Christian denominations, cautioning that divisions within the Church diminish its influence.

He noted that a fractured Christian community weakens the collective voice of faith leaders in addressing national issues.

“It is essential to emphasise the importance of fostering unity among Christian denominations. A divided Church weakens its impact,” he stated.

He concluded by urging churches to work together in promoting national development and moral discipline.

“But a united Church can transform society. Let us work together to build a vibrant and influential Christian community that speaks with one voice on issues of national development,” he said, reinforcing his call for cooperation among religious bodies.
