THE Apostolic Nuncio to Ghana, Most Rev. Leon Kalenga Badikele, has called on Ghanaians not to do anything that would breach the peace the country is presently enjoying.
He said there was no price one could pay for peace and expressed the need to jealously guard the current peace in the country.
The Nuncio gave the advice when he paid a courtesy call on the Upper West Regional Minister, Mr George Hickah Benson in Wa.
He was on a four-day working visit to the Upper West Region since his assumption of office in July, last year.
He said Ghana had once again proved to the rest of the world that democracy could work on the African continent.
This, he said, was a feat which other countries on the continent would look up to so that they would work to entrench democratic governance in their respective countries.
"When Ghana is able to go through yet another presidential election, other African countries would believe that democracy could do well on the African continent", he stated.
The regional minister, for his part, said Ghanaians were God-fearing people who were looking up to a peaceful and smooth transition.
He paid tribute to the Catholic Church and lauded the enormous role the church continuously played in the development process of the region and the country at large.
