Under the leadership of its new Moderator, Rt. Rev. Dr. Abraham Nana Opare Kwakye, the Presbyterian Church of Ghana has attributed the deteriorating socio-economic growth of the country to corruption.

The moderator emphasized the need for a collective awakening to a new era of accountability to protect the well-being of the broader society.

During his inaugural address at the induction service, Rt. Rev. Dr. Abraham Nana Opare Kwakye reiterated the Church's commitment to combatting practices that hinder the nation's progress. He stressed that the church will continue to demand accountability from the government.

“The tendency of some of our fellow citizens to loot the national coffers is a matter of great public concern, and we shall not relent in speaking against any such acts, no matter who is found in the line of fire. I promise you that the PCG shall not fail to speak against these practices.”

“The rising unemployment and hopelessness in the country as a result of the global economic crisis and other factors are major security concerns, and the church will not relent in its efforts to demand accountability,” the Moderator added.
