A renowned Evangelist, Rev Dr Lawrence Tetteh has called for better living conditions for all Ghanaians.
He said although government has done its best to manage the economy, there is more room for improvement.
“We want better living conditions for every community. We want the national purse to go down to the down trodden, we want to keep our children from the streets, we also want our roads to be built. As a matter of fact, I believe we have not prioritized enough. That I have never minced my words. As a nation we should prioritize. There are certain places where we have laid more emphasis as against places we should look at to build,” Rev Tetteh said on the December 31 edition of Hot Issues hosted by Keminni Amanor.
He cited a West African country where road construction has been prioritized for which reason they are deriving enormous benefits.
“I was in Equatorial Guinea and I noticed that even villages have streets. And I realized that this area we have fallen short. If we prioritize, we can give a lot of support to the roads Minister to continue, because if we have good roads and good access, it gives us chance to enlarge our economy, ” the televangelist emphasized.
In a related development, Rev. Dr Lawrence Tetteh, has stated that many young people have been forced into homosexuality due to poverty.
He said, not every young person who is currently engaging in homosexuality is doing so at will.
He said this to refute the notion that like prostitution, some people are into homosexuality due to financial gains.
He alleged that some well-resourced homosexuals prey on youth in poverty-stricken communities in the country to lure them into such immoral acts.
“If you go to a place like Akoto Lantey, go to some part of Obo Kwawu and go to some parts of Kumasi, you would be surprised how vulnerable people have been abused because they lack. Poverty has allowed them to take advantage of young people in certain communities.
“I was born at Jamestown and when I go to Jamestown today, I see boys and girls who have entered into homosexuality and some of them are sick… it is because of money,” he stressed.
