Retired Cape Coast Area Head of the Church of Pentecost, Apostle Samuel Yaw Antwi has made a heartfelt appeal to Ghanaians to believe in Mother Ghana and work towards the nation’s peace, especially as the country approaches the upcoming elections.
Speaking to the media during his retirement service at the University of Cape Coast, which marked the end of his 30-year service in the Church of Pentecost, Apostle Yaw Antwi emphasized the importance of unity and peace, regardless of the election outcome.
“The most important thing is that the country must move on and remain intact no matter who wins the election come December 7, as we enter this election period, what are we saying? We are saying that we are one nation, and political parties are just there to sell their brand or the thing that will help this country. I may like yours, you may not like mine, but that doesn’t make us enemies. We should all believe in one another and believe in Mother Ghana and work towards her peace.”
He encouraged politicians and political parties to focus on sharing their visions rather than resorting to threats that could incite violence stating that, “We urge the youth to respect authority and those who are above them because God honors those who are humble, and He opposes the proud, so, I would urge everybody to learn to be humble, to yield themselves fully to the work of God, and God will surely lift them up, Apostle Yaw Antwi advised.”
Reflecting on his years of service, he shared, “From 1994 to this very day, we have dedicated our life to serving God. There is no service without challenges. But the greatest of all, which is my joy, is that He has used us to transform lives. People’s lives have been transformed. I’ve seen sinners repent, the sick healed, barren women having children—this is the joy of ministry, the life of transformation in the life of God’s people.”
The event was attended by prominent figures, including the Chairman of the Church of Pentecost, Apostle Eric Nyamekye, and Right Reverend Richardson Aboagye Andam, Bishop of the Cape Diocese of the Methodist Church-Ghana.
