The Catholic Bishops’ appeal was made as part of their ongoing efforts to ensure that the elections contribute positively to Ghana’s progress and the welfare of its citizens.
Addressing the nation on behalf of the Conference, Most Rev. Matthew Kwasi Gyamfi, the national president of the Bishops’ Conference, emphasised the importance of informed voting.
