"War will not bring anything good, but rather destroy valuable things that bring development," he added.

Torgbui continued that, belonging to different political parties should not bring divisions but must rather togetherness that helps in development.

He continued and advised the youth not to allow themselves to be used as instruments of violence to cause chaos on election day.

Torgbui Katsekpor lV, commenting on the sudden demise of former President Jerry John Rawlings, he said it was shocking news at a time nobody could predict.
