The chiefs and people of the Osudoku Traditional Area have ended their Ritual Blemele Hebrew Prayer festival with a call on Ghanaians to hold people in authority and religious leaders accountable in order to salvage the country from negative and divisive tendencies.
Osofo Dzawano Amartey, a Spiritual Leader, said this at a symposium at Kadzanya-Osudoku in the Dangme West District to climax activities marking the celebration of the prayer festival.
He said by holding people accountable, the nation could purge itself from moral decadence, occultism, bribery scandals, defrauding by false pretenses, homo-sexuality, lesbianism, favoritism and nepotism.
Osofo Amartey said most Ghanaians belonged to one religious sect or another and it would be appropriate to hold them accountable by their religious beliefs and practices.
He said it was regrettable and disheartening to hear how people hide behind religion and race to cause evil to the human race.
The festival was a time of homecoming for the indigenes of Osudoku and an occasion to show fellow-feeling by praying for God's blessings for the people of Osudoku and Ghanaians as a whole.
