The delegation held separate meetings with leadership and men of God of the E.P. Church Ghana and the Roman Catholic Church in the Volta Region.

The meeting saw the sharing of ideas shared, and the making of suggestions. 

At the end of the meeting, the two churches decried the conduct and activities of the groups.

They assured of their willingness and readiness to educate their members to complement the efforts of government in ensuring the continued peace and security of the Region and the nation as a whole.

The delegation was grateful to both churches for the warm reception and assurance.

The delegation also held a meeting with the Regional Peace Council on the same issue

Members of the Regional Security Council, the Hon. Deputy Regional Minister, Pastor Johnson Avuletey and Hon. Archibald Yao. Letsa participated in all the engagement meetings.
