The Catholic Bishop of the Sefwi Wiawso Diocese, Most Rev. Samuel Nkua Boateng, who also serves as the Western North Regional Chairman of the National Peace Council, has called for an immediate ceasefire among United States, Israel, and Iran, urging all parties to return to the negotiating table to resolve their differences.
According to the Bishop, war does little to promote progress and instead undermines the development of nations.
He made the appeal in an interview with Ghana Broadcasting Corporation during the inauguration of the Nim Avenue Hotel Pastoral Center at Datano, a suburb of Sefwi Wiawso Municipality, on April 16, 2026.
Bishop Nkua Boateng stressed the importance of mutual respect and dialogue, noting that peaceful negotiation remains the most effective way to prevent further escalation and maintain global stability.
