Youth to fear God and keep His Commandments-Bishop Evelyn Sunu
The youth are reminded to have the fear of God, keep His Commandments, trust and serve Him in faithfulness and with reverence.
They are also advised to obey their parents, those placed in authority over them, conduct themselves wel , show unconditional love to all, maintain purity of heart and depend on the word of God.
Lady Bishop Evelyn Candace Sunu, the founder and leader of God’s Glorious Ambassadors International Church, Accra, in an interview with The Spectator, said the fear of God was lost to Ghanaians, starting from those in authority to the least, a situation she said would not help in building up the youth.
She likened the youth to the seed of the land which had been planted to bear good fruits in the future, failure to which the progress and the future of the country would be lost.
Bishop Sunu said the youth must walk in the integrity of the word, desist from indecent lifestyles and humble themselves because they would be handed the mantle of leadership.
She said it was unfortunate that the youth had forgotten about God and rather dedicated their lives to idol worship in order to amass wealth, a situation which was leading them to destruction and untimely death.
Bishop Sunu lamented that the youth had allowed materialism to take the centre stage in their lives, and were compelled to commit grievous crimes like murder, immoral acts, greed for money and laziness among others.
She said though the youth felt lazy to work, they were on the contrary eager to amass wealth through occultism, and were not bothered about the grave consequences of such acts.
Bishop Sunu reminded them not to waste their precious time on the acquisition of wealth since none would carry anything away from this world.
She said though the truth was bitter, it must be told, adding that the youth must take delight in doing what pleased God and acceptable in His sight.
Bishop Sunu called on the leadership of the church to organise crusades for the youth and counsel them as regards the right path they must follow to attain everlasting life.
She said the youth must constantly be reminded that before they would attain salvation, they must amend their ways and try to serve their creator in their youthful days.

The Ministry of the Interior has suspended the Private Security Organisation licence of Kantanka Security Services Limited with immediate effect.
The suspension follows reports of alleged use of unprescribed uniforms, and unauthorised possession and use of firearms and ammunition by the company’s personnel.
The incident occurred on Sunday, June 21, 2026, while they were providing private security services at Kwabenya, Accra.
According to the ministry, preliminary investigations suggest possible violations of the Police Service (Private Security Organisations) Regulations, 1992, L.I. 1571, which regulate private security operations in Ghana.
The Ministry said the use of unprescribed uniforms, unauthorised firearms, and security accoutrements by private guards constitutes a serious breach with direct implications for public safety.
As a result, Kantanka Security Services Limited has been directed to cease all operations immediately pending the outcome of investigations.
All individuals and institutions are advised to stop doing business with the company until further notice from the Ministry.
The Ministry has also instructed Kantanka Security Services to fully cooperate with the Ghana Police Service and provide all information needed for a thorough investigation.
The Ministry assured the public that the suspension is an administrative measure to protect public safety while investigations continue, adding that appropriate action will be taken after investigations, in line with laws governing private security operations in Ghana.

The National Democratic Congress has officially renamed its national headquarters the “Jerry John Rawlings House” to honour its founder and former President, Jerry John Rawlings.
The ceremony took place on Monday, June 22, 2026, as part of activities marking what would have been Rawlings’ 79th birthday.
Held under the theme “From Revolution to Fourth Republic: The Rawlings Legacy,” the event brought together party members and senior government officials to celebrate his life, leadership, and role in shaping Ghana’s democracy.
President John Dramani Mahama unveiled a commemorative plaque and a bust of the late statesman at the newly named building.
He said the renaming is a tribute to Rawlings’ immense contribution to the NDC and the nation.
“History matters because it teaches people where they came from and inspires the future,” Mahama said.
He described the ceremony as a significant act of institutional memory that ensures future generations understand the sacrifices made to build the party and protect Ghana’s democracy.
Kimathi Rawlings, son of the late President, expressed the family’s gratitude.
“The naming of this headquarters after our dad, Jerry John Rawlings, is far more than a symbolic gesture,” he said.
He called it a fitting tribute to Rawlings’ legacy, values, and sacrifices that continue to influence Ghana’s politics.
The event ended with a cake-cutting to mark Rawlings’ birthday.
Rawlings, who died in November 2020, first led Ghana as a military ruler, then guided the transition to constitutional rule and served as the country’s first President under the Fourth Republic from 1993 to 2001. He remains one of the most influential figures in Ghana’s modern history.
The ceremony which was a moment of remembrance and celebration of his enduring legacy was attended by top party officials, government appointees and NDC faithfuls
