● Marriage is beautiful but partners must choose carefully
The Parish Priest of the St. Augustine Catholic Church, Ashaiman, in the Greater Accra Region, Reverend Father Ignatius Ayivor has advised the youth not to focus on looks when searching for women to marry.
He said the youth should allow God to guide them because “when they are enlightened by the word of God they would see beyond the appearances of people because looks fade with time”.
Delivering his sermon on Sunday at a “Unity Mass”, Rev Fr. Ayivor said he was baffled that some young ladies focused on the clothes a suitor would wear.
“Some of the ladies will look at you up and down and take a good look at your shoes. I do not know why they are so interested in the shoes a man is wearing ,” he wondered.
Rev Fr. Ayivor observed that some young ladies who prioritised appearances over the directions of God and the potentials in their suitors had ended up making irreversible mistakes but, sadly, other young ladies continued to do same.
He advised young men to also learn to be humble not carry themselves about with pride as some would always do.
“Let me tell you, no lady would like to marry a man who is proud” he cautioned.
He described pride as “dirty” and should not be encouraged under any circumstances because humans were nothing without God.
“God is the source of all we have” the Parish Priest said and advised the congregation to be led by the wisdom of God rather than “book knowledge.”

The Tema Regional Police Command has arrested a 32-year-old man for allegedly posing as a soldier and extorting money from unsuspecting members of the public at Ashaiman.
The suspect, identified as Bright Atsu Kudiabor, was arrested by the Ashaiman Police on Wednesday, September 16, 2026, at about 7:00 a.m.
According to the Police, he was arrested at an area known as “I Shall Return”, where he was allegedly parading himself as a soldier and demanding money from people.
The Police said Kudiabor, who is an ex-convict, was initially arrested by personnel of the Ghana National Fire Service in Ashaiman with assistance from other members of the public.
A search conducted on him after he was handed over to the Police reportedly led to the recovery of a set of military camouflage uniform.
The suspect is currently in Police custody and assisting with investigations.
The Tema Regional Police Command said he would be processed for court after investigations are completed.
The Police urged the public to remain vigilant and report anyone who falsely presents themselves as a soldier or a member of another security agency to deceive or extort money from the public.

Volta Regional Minister, James Gunu, says the Volta Region holds enormous agricultural potential and efforts must be geared towards connecting farmers to the needed resources to unlock that potential.
He said focus must be on linking farmers to resources, technology, financing and markets to increase production, create jobs and build sustainable livelihoods.
Hon. Gunu made the remarks at the national launch of the Ghana Tomato Self-Sufficiency Initiative (GHATSI) held at Anloga in the Volta Region on Tuesday, September 15.
The initiative, under the theme “Produce at Home. Feed the Nation. Export the Surplus,” seeks to boost local tomato production, processing and marketing while reducing Ghana’s heavy reliance on imported tomatoes.
The launch was attended by the Minister for Food and Agriculture, Eric Opoku, his Deputy, John Setor Dumelo, Feed Ghana Coordinator, Bright Demordzi, Members of Parliament, traditional leaders, MMDCEs, farmers and other stakeholders.
Mr.Gunu expressed appreciation to the Minister for Food and Agriculture for the support announced for the region, including two excavators, 200 cartons of organic fertiliser, and GH¢200,000 for Ms. Kuatudzo Esther Dela, a tomato farmer and processor from Ziope.
He described the initiative as an important step towards making agriculture a stronger driver of food security, job creation and economic growth in the Volta Region.
