People who annoy me the most everyday are apart from the politicians, the so-called 'men-of-God' who put baskets by the roadside and make so much noise, urging people to drop in some money for prayers to be said to them. They are to me criminals in the sense that they are using Christ's name to Rob and Cheat. They must watch out!
It is annoying to see them do this without anyone in authority talking. What is the Christian council of Ghana waiting for?http://www.myjoyonline.com

                     WOMEN IN POLITICS

Petition from Inter Party Women Alliance to the District Chief Executives, (Nadowli, Jirapa, Lawra and Lambussie District Assemblies)

Objective: Greater women participation in politics and violence free elections, 2012

The above women leaders advocate for violence free elections come the 2012 general election.

    Ø  Women and children are the most vulnerable when there is violence

    Ø  Campaign language should be civil and not insulting and intimidating

    Ø  The media should be circumspect in their reportage

    Ø  2012 elections should be seen as a means to acquiring leadership mandate and not a fight

    Ø  Security, forces should be state focus and not party focus where the rights of minority are trampled upon.

    Ø  The electioneering process should be just, transparent and credible so as to ensure national acceptance of end results of elections out come.

Unity among various political parties

    Ø  Minority must always exist to  critique on issues regarding government policy

The need for women greater participation in politics

    Ø  Women have the constitutional right to be part of decision making at all levels

    Ø  Women should not be intimidated by their male counterparts and traditional authorities

    Ø  Kitchen days of the woman is over and therefore they should be  offered a fair political platform to contest for  and be appointed in to leadership positions

We also want to advocate that the 30% of government appointees to the Assembly, out of which 50% will be women be implemented to the latter

Also we are advocating for effective use of the local language in the general assembly to enable all, especially women participate fully in deliberations. Obvious is the fact that the illiteracy rate of women is high in the region and the nation at large.

We hope the concerns raised will be given the due attention.
