“For some time now, the presidential election has been preceded or followed by tension, crisis and \/ or violence,” lamented Chief Gbizi\u00e9 Lambert, explained the reason behind the peace awareness tours organized across the country by the National Chamber of kings and traditional leaders to help maintain social cohesion in different regions.<\/p>\n

Addressing a hundred or so traditional leaders, community and neighborhood leaders, women and young people, Chief Gbizi\u00e9 reminded everyone that they must relay information back in their respective communities, in order to that the message be known and understood by all, and that everyone should be at the same level, so that peace reigns in G\u00f4h.<\/p>\n

According to him, it is therefore the duty of traditional leaders to continue to work for peace.<\/p>\n
