The Christian Council of Ghana (CCG) has condemned the chaos that erupted in during vetting of ministerial nominees by the Appointments Committee on Thursday, January 30, leading to property damage and suspension of proceedings.
A press statement copied to the Ghana News Agency in Accra by the Christian Council expressed concern over the confrontations during the scheduled vetting of Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, Foreign Affairs Minister-designate, and Kwabena Mintah Akandoh, the Minister-designate for Health.
Earlier proceedings had progressed smoothly until Thursday's incident halted the vetting process.
The statement said such negative actions did not only undermine the rule of law and ethical governance principles, but also fostered a negative mindset in the country's political activities. "We, therefore, strongly condemn the use of violent confrontations and agitations in our national political engagements and discourses such as what happened in ," it said.
