The Ghana Pentecostal and Charismatic Council has said some politicians and the media have misinterpreted their visit and prayers at a galamsey site visited in the Eastern Region.

The group of Pastors received flak after a video where they were praying at a galamsey site went viral.

Some have described their action as hypocritical while others claim it’s superficial.

However, speaking in an interview on Peace FM’<\/span>s morning show ‘Kokrokoo<\/span>‘, President of the Council, Rev Dr Frimpong Manso expressed his disappointment insisting they went on a fact-finding mission and not to pray as reported in the media.

” . . Some of the media have ridiculed the Pastors but we\u2019ve forgiven them . . . Politicians and Commentators even played with us but that wasn\u2019t why we went there . . .” he explained.<\/em>

According to him, “we\u2019ve spoken severally against galamsey but to no avail so we decided to go for fact-finding; to have first-hand knowledge of what is going on and to empathize and sympathize with the people there . . . what we saw is very sad”.<\/em>

“Politicians cannot end this, we’ve given them the mandate but probably they are trying  . . . galamsey fight is not about politics, we need to take politics out and be united as Ghanaians and fight to bring peace in this country,”<\/em> he stated.
