The Western Regional Minister, Joseph Nelson, has urged Ghanaians to use the Christmas festive season to strengthen national cohesion and build on the peace and stability of the country for shared prosperity.
He made the call in a goodwill message to the people of the Western Region and the nation as a whole during the Christmas celebrations.
Mr Nelson said Christmas was not only a season of joy, but also a time for national reflection.
“It calls on us to reaffirm the values of sacrifice, compassion, discipline and unity, which must guide our conduct as citizens and strengthen our resolve to build a resilient, inclusive and prosperous nation,” he noted.
He stressed that as the country continues its journey of renewal and development, the festive season should serve as a reminder that meaningful progress is best achieved through unity.
“Let us use this period to deepen social cohesion, promote peace and recommit ourselves to responsible citizenship,” the Minister said.
