A member of the clergy, Rev. Abraham Larbi, has criticised the Christian Council and the Peace Council for their silence regarding recent events in the country.

Expressing his disappointment at the ongoing 'Enough is Enough' demonstration in Accra, Rev. Larbi questioned the credibility of the councils.

He noted that while the councils were vocal in their criticisms during the John Mahama administration, they have remained silent on pressing issues under the current Akufo-Addo government.

“The Christian council should bow down their heads in shame. The Peace Council has no credibility. If you criticise somebody of wrongdoing and somebody comes to practice the same thing, and you can’t talk about it, then you are not a truthful person and that is Christian council for you,” he said.

Rev. Larbi expressed his frustration, saying he could not understand why the councils have turned a blind eye to the issues happening in the country.

He added that the Christian Council and the Peace Council have failed in their execution of their mandates.

“I don’t know why they are not coming out to talk, the country does not belong to them. The Christian Council is just one of the few organisations that speaks for Christians. As for these people, especially the Christian and Peace councils, they have failed this nation,” he lamented.

Thousands of Ghanaians, mostly supporters of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), have thronged the Kwame Nkrumah Interchange, at Circle in Accra, as part of the party’s ‘Enough is Enough’ demonstration against the Electoral Commission of Ghana.

The demonstrators, who are clothed in NDC colours as well as red and black apparel, are demonstrating against the EC’s objection to an independent audit of the voters' register for the 2024 elections.
