The Ghana + Peace Campaign 2016has had its symbol as a calabash throughout campaigning for peace to representpeace and unity. The calabash also comes with unique uses and cultural properties in all the regions in Ghana such as collecting water, administering medication, serving water or drinks. We say the calabash irrespective of its usefulness when broken and mended cannot serve its purpose efficiently and just like the calabash if the country Ghana is broken as a result of violent struggle for power, it will hinder growth and development.
The Ghana + Peace symbolic calabash for peace bore the signatures of the opinion leaders in Ghana as a pledge for protecting the peace in Ghana. Among the endorsers of the Ghana + Peace symbolic calabash were His Excellency John Dramani Mahama and President Elect Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo- Addo.
