PSCEP: The effective tool to engender peace in Ghana


For any nation to achieve development, peace as an ingredient is said to be the key. It therefore behoves on every citizen, individuals and organizations to preach the message of peace and abide by it. 

It is under this backdrop the Peaceful Character Education Foundation (PCEF), a Ghanaian based Non-governmental Organization (NGO) has recently launched its campaign dubbed “Peace in Ghana 2016 and beyond” to educate Ghanaians about the need to ensure that peace prevail in Ghana especially before, during or after the November 7 polls.

The Organization through its Peaceful Solution Character Education Program (PSCEP) is poised to sensitize the entire nation on ways to keep the peace of our dear motherland especially before, during and after the November 7 polls.
PCEF’S peace campaign plan is based on 5 key pillars which are extracts of its exclusive program; PSCEP. These are as follows:

 1. SELF CONTROL: Lets Guide and direct our thoughts, because our thoughts lead to feelings and feelings leads to actions which lead to a POSITIVE outcome or a NEGATIVE outcome.
2. RESPECT: each other’s views and opinions and Respect and Protect property and environment
3. ACCEPTANCE: of election results no matter the outcome
4. RESPONSIBILITY: All stakeholders should strive to perform their duties appropriately and to the best of their abilities
5. In all things lets S.T.O.P.: Stop, Think, weigh our Options and Proceed with the right choice. The right choice is a choice that would not bring harm to anybody, to property and to the environment.

According to Mr. Richard Wogodo, the President of PCEF, persistent determination to bring a peaceful solution to the world's problems has led to the publication of the Peaceful Solution Character Education Program which has a variety of courses designed exclusively by PCEF to reach all ages so the impact of character change can be realized and affected in the society.

The PSCEP is a comprehensive program that provides complete curricula for students (primary through secondary), parents, inmates, rehabilitated youths and community youth groups which is making a positive impact on many lives.

Delivering his address at the campaign launch in Accra on Saturday, July 2, 2016 which took place at the GNAT Hall, Richard Wogodo disclosed the 5 key pillars which hinges on the campaign are indeed important because “it does not only help us to achieve a peaceful elections but at the general society level can help transform and make our communities a peaceful one before, during and after the November polls”. 

A day before the launch of the campaign which was Friday, July 1, 2016, PCEF conducted a peace walk in the morning between the hours of 7:00-9:00 am to create awareness about the campaign which saw over 138 people in attendance. They marched through some principal street in Accra, the nation’s Capital before converging at a big venue where participants were addressed.
PCEF is a Ghanaian based Non-Governmental Organization that is committed in sensitizing people on the need to eschew violence and embrace peace in every way. Since its inception four (4) years ago, it has conducted series of training for Ghanaians including traversing the seven (7) regions of Ghana where students, people in churches and businesses benefited. The launching of the organization in Ghana on June 30, 2012 also saw over 7,000 people among others sensitized on how to ensure peace prevail in Ghana at all cost.

Image
Many eyes have seen it but are yet to believe. To those who are convinced that God's creature exits on earth with such a weird shape of head have been left totally flabbergasted and worried too.That is human nature; doubting Thomases everywhere. A man whose photo has been making rounds on social media platforms has been the one in the centre of a huge controversy that rendered onlookers astounded and divided. The photograph in question has really created a scene that is of comic relief and over-sensational. The problem per se is not about his facial appearance but borders specifically on the 'caricature' shape of his head coupled with his jaw-jutting chin which has become the point of attraction at all cost.  It appears no amount of words could best describe the shape of his 'Hill-Valley-Hill Head' which looks very sparkling without hairs on it.  But some social media users who caught sight of the photograph have been reacting with varying...
