President John Mahama of Ghana today told World leaders to work together in turning the lyrics of Michael Jackson's song “Heal the World” into reality.
Addressing the 71st United Nations General Assembly, President Mahama said, “Hate speech is becoming common. People complain of being tired of being politically correct. In many places xenophobia has taken over rational thinking.
“It’s a paradox of our world that nearly 30 years after (President Ronald) Reagan called for the Berlin Wall to be torn down, new walls are springing up everywhere.”
“The words of his 1991 hit song ‘Heal the World’ continue to echo from his grave. It is my wish that history will record our time here in this hall as one that gave reality to Michael Jackson’s song, heal the world, make the world a better place for you and me, and the entire human race.”
