Below?? are?? accepts of views of some members of the public.
Apostle Francis?? Amoako?? Atta – Founder and the Leader of Freedom? Chapel? International
Most?? people? do not? understand? the word? peace.? Peace?? does not mean absence of war , but? the? presence? of meakness? and humility.
When? God? said? in his? creation that ??L et? there be? Light, H did? not mean? just the? reflection? of? light? but was? also calling? for? peace? on the earth .
Definitely one? of? the people? before? the Supreme?? Court , the petitioner? and the defendant? will? be? declared? winner in the? case , and when? that? happens their? supporters? should? learn? to celebrate? the victory? in moderation so? as not? to provoke supporters of the other? party .
Now?? the judges? also?? need the?? discernment of? God? to deliver? judgment? and? for them? to do that?? Ghanaians?? have? to go? down on their? knees? and pray for? them .
NANA?? OSABARIMA?? ANSAH SASRAKU III -Chief? of? Mamfe- Akwapim
We should? have? confidence? in? the presiding judges? and bear? in mind? that? it? is only one party? that will emerge? winners? in the case .
Even? if that happens? in our? traditional institution? which is regarded? as? the oldest? form of mediation? before? the? advent? of? the law courts because of Chieftaincy litigations, then how much? more our political system of governance.
You the media?? also?? have a crucial role? to play? if there will be peace in the country.? You? should? be careful about? the kind? of people? you? give? them? space or? airtime? to? talk? in your media because? whatever? they say? can either unite? or? destroy? the? nation.
As?? traditional rulers? here,? we? have? decided? to? use? the? Akwasidae? as part of our Ohum?? festival? celebration? to educate? our subjects,? particularly? the youth? on the matter? and?? it consequence? if?? ,found? contemptous .
We? should? all learn? to? accept? the? verdict? in? good? faith? to? forge? ahead? as one? people? with? a common? destiny.

? NANA? ODEEFUO? OTENG KORANGYE II ?Chief of Berekuso???????
I have a lot of respect for Ghanaians? and the way they have comported themselves with regards to the ongoing Supreme Court proceedings attest to this fact.
The situation would have been different if it were to be another country.? But not withstanding? this, Ghanaians must continue to pray for the peace of the country, not forgetting that we are one people with a common destiny.
The religious bodies also have a role to play in ensuring peace by educating the public as part of their sermon.

We? should not destroy our country because of politics. We should? rather be careful of some of our utterances on the airwaves. Should anything happen in the country we will not have anywhere to run to as the country is surrounded by war ravaged countries.
