Member of Parliament for Asante Akim North, Kwame Andy Appiah-Kubi, has called on political leaders from both the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the New Patriotic Party (NPP) to come together and find a lasting solution to the persistent conflict in Bawku.
Speaking on The Key Points on TV3 on Saturday, April 12, Appiah-Kubi stressed the need for a united political front to demonstrate that peace in Bawku transcends party lines. "If at all politicians will come in, politicians from both sides must hold hands to solve the problem….
show to the people of Bawku that it is not in anybody's interest to be killing yourselves," he stated.
He also made a direct appeal to the youth of Bawku, urging them to embrace peace and move beyond the cycle of violence and vengeance. "My prayer to the young people of Bawku is that even in law, a time comes that litigation ends, a time comes when conflicts or disagreements must end," he said.
