Africa-Press – Ghana. The government has appealed to residents of Nkwanta South to seek peaceful resolution to their differences.
The call was made during his “Thank You Tour’ to the Oti Region, where President Mahama emphasized the importance of peace and unity in the area.
President Mahama’s appeal aimed at promoting a peaceful environment, which is essential for the region’s development.
He said the government was committed to addressing the needs of the people and promoting economic growth, but this could only be achieved in a peaceful and stable environment.
He emphasized that the people should be working together to fight for essential amenities such as hospitals, schools and infrastructure, rather than engaging in conflicts that harmed each other.
