Former Minister of Environment, Science, Technology, and Innovation, Prof. Kwabena Frimpong-Boateng has issued a word of caution on all those involved in destroying rivers and forest reserves.
Prof. Frimpong-Boateng made pronouncements at a Full Gospel Business Men’s Fellowship 40th-anniversary breakfast meeting held by the Kumasi Chapter in the Ashanti Region.
Making reference to the bible, Prof said: “Revelations 11:18 says the nations are angry because your wrath has come. The time has come for you to punish the dead and to reward your servants the prophets and saints who revere your name.”
“The last line is, ‘and to punish those who destroy the earth. That is what God says. He will destroy people who destroy the earth,” he stressed.
His revelation of the alleged involvement of politicians and influential personalities within government, the media, and the presidency, has received a lot of praise from ordinary Ghanaians as few also attacked him.
Cautioning those perpetrating the act, Prof Boateng said “When we are destroying our environment, we must know we are not alone. All the other creatures are very important. God created us to do His will. To cater to the last, the least, and the lost. “
He said, destroying one tree caused a significant ecological imbalance and disrupts a whole symbiotic chain of natural habitats and organisms created in the infinite wisdom of God.
“When we take machines into the forest, pull down trees; there may be a dozen birds with their nests there as their home. We might find lizards, termites, and other things there as their habitat.”
He challenged the congregation to imagine the scenario where a more powerful being came to the earth pulling down homes and taking away all the food and water that humans survived on.
