Return Mission Schools -Bishop
The Bishop of Sefwi Wiawso Diocese of the Anglican
Church says the church is in a position to better
maintain schools established by the church in the
country.

This was made known during the church's biennial
synod conference organised for its leaders in the
diocese.

The Anglican Diocese of Wiawso was split from the
Sekondi Diocese in 2006, which is eight years old
and has 22 parishes with over 80 churches.

The Bishop of the diocese, Rt Rev Abraham Cobbinah
Ackah, sought to suggest that the Ghana Education
Service (GES) has failed to properly maintain
their basic schools.

Bishop Ackah believes that the situation of high
level of moral decay in their various basic
schools is due to lack of active involvement of
the church leaders.

According to him, the regional managers of mission
schools have been made 'toothless bulldogs', a
situation which makes it difficult for churches to
control activities in their schools.

He used the occasion to chastise people who
constantly criticise the government without
suggesting solutions, and appealed to the
President to pay a listening ear to suggestions
for better running of the nation's economy.

He called on all religious bodies to pray for the
nation as it faces economic hardships and the
threat of Ebola viral disease.
