Rev Professor Joy Mante, Moderator of General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana (PCG), has called on the government to provide more job opportunities for Ghanaians to end the craze for quick money.
He explained that the need to make money while unemployed often contributed to people indulging in such money rituals, using human blood and parts.
He appealed to the government to provide enough jobs and better conditions of service for workers to reduce the tendency of getting quick money at all cost.
Rev Mante made the call in an interaction with the media during his visit to the PCG, Victory Congregation, a new church auditorium funded solely by a couple, Mr and Mrs Agbo at Akyem Apoli in the Birim South District of the Eastern Region.

The three injured persons who are yet to be identified have been admitted to the same hospital for treatment.
According to a police source, the four illegal miners were trapped in a mining pit when they returned to check on the state of the dynamite they had planted beneath the rocks.
