Bishop Goldsmith urges tolerance ahead of 2024 elections

Bishop Victor Goldsmith, founder of Kairos Rhema Foundation and Ministry International, has made a heartfelt appeal to politicians to prioritize tolerance and civility in the lead-up to Ghana's 2024 elections.
Responding to questions from journalists on His Master's graduation at the Theological Seminary's 79th graduation ceremony in Legon, Bishop Goldsmith emphasized Ghana's reputation as a shining example of peaceful democracy.
"Ghana has been a beacon of democracy and peace, and we must maintain this legacy," Bishop Goldsmith stressed.
"It's puzzling why presenting policies and ideologies should lead to conflict.
We must preserve our nation's good name for posterity."
He cautioned politicians against divisive rhetoric, urging them to see the winner of the election as a victory for Ghana, not just a political party.
"Election is not warfare; it's about choosing leaders to manage our future," he said.
Bishop Goldsmith encouraged Ghanaians to carefully evaluate each party's policies and make informed decisions.
"Let's study the policies, make informed decisions, and ensure our nation's continued prosperity."
His timely intervention aims to promote harmony, responsible decision-making, and issue-based campaigning in the upcoming elections.
The message echoes the Ghana Catholic Bishops' Conference's call for peace, integrity, and fairness in the democratic process.
