Chief of Staff Julius Debrah has advised the youth to be wise and desist from fighting for politicians as Ghana readies for elections next month.
He said it is important for Ghanaians to realise that politics is not about who can fight or insult but instead, about development and the welfare of the citizenry.
Speaking to students of the Komfo Anokye nursing training college in Kumasi in the Ashanti region, Mr. Debrah urged the students, most of whom were hurling opposition slogans at him, to be tolerant and think first about their future before politics.
“Politics is not about insults, neither is it about who can fight. As I stand before you as the Chief of Staff to the President, I don’t go to his house and tell him that I want to have breakfast with him because I’m his chief of staff; it is same with politics. If you go and follow any politician who directs you to go and misbehave, who directs you to go and fight someone, and you get hurt, the best thing they will do is to come and visit you on your sick bed.
“I’m using this occasion to advise and encourage all of you; we are in the 21st century, life has moved on, when time changes please be advised and change,” Mr Debrah noted.
The Chief of Staff is currently in the Ashanti region campaigning for President John Mahama.
Ghana goes to the polls on December 7, to elect a president and parliamentarians for the next four years.

I can't think far, massa advice those your violence Ndc supporters who want to Nana Addo resident to throw stone at his house. nonsins
Ndc preaches peace and practice war,ndc talks about don't allow politicians to use you and they use their thugs to intimidate others. One thing I have seen with this ndc is they are cowards,anyone who intimidate is a coward when you stand up to defend then they change to oh we are not in battle let's jaw,jaw you know there is jaw jaw why do you send these thugs to Nana Addo's house? If you no peace why throw stones and bottles into his house? The NPP will not allow ndc to intimidate any more you bring it on you take it back. If you think you will preach peace with war under your shirt then think twice because NPP is not going to lose guard for you people to take them by surprise. I advise NPP to get themselves armed when they bring peace so be it,if war you are ready to defend yourselves never be convinced with this their we are for peace they are desperate to retain power because of their ste*ling and evil to the state so don't care of putting the country into chaos and every Ghanaian need to be ready for these ndc fo*ls with incompetency and thi*ving as their policy. Julius Debrah give us a Break! We are ready.
