Amb. Abukari Inbrana Awudu Lectures Students on Inner Peace at Crystal Galaxy College, AccraAccra, Ghana – 23rd September, 2026The Chairman of the International Ambassadors of Peace Network (IAPN), Amb. Abukari Inbrana Awudu, has delivered an inspiring lecture on Inner Peace to students of Crystal Galaxy College in Accra, Ghana, as part of IAPN’s Youth Peace Education Initiative.Speaking to a packed hall of students, Amb. Awudu stated that the quest for global peace will remain a mirage if we ignore the peace within us.Key lessons from his lecture:1. True Peace Starts Within the Individual
Amb. Abukari Inbrana Awudu emphasized that peace does not begin in parliament or at peace summits. It begins inside each person. True peace is not the absence of external noise or trouble, but the presence of internal calm, self-control, and harmony. A nation of people at war within themselves can never be at peace. Therefore, the first classroom for peace is the human heart.2. Inner Peace Creates a Ripple Effect of Kindness
He explained that inner peace is never private — it spreads. Like a ripple in water, when one person chooses to be calm, kind, and understanding, it affects everyone around them. A peaceful student creates a peaceful class. A peaceful family creates a peaceful community. He reminded students that kindness is contagious, and understanding begins when we ourselves are at peace.3. A Call to Spread Peace and Positivity
Amb. Awudu challenged the students to become active carriers of peace. “Do not wait to become leaders tomorrow to spread peace. Start now,” he said. He urged them to use their words to heal, not to hurt; to use their social media to inspire, not to insult; and to use their daily interactions to show tolerance, respect, and empathy.4. You Cannot Give What You Do Not Have
In his core message, he stated: “You cannot give what you do not have. So if you have peace, you can give peace.”He explained that many people want to give love, patience, and forgiveness, but their own hearts are filled with anger, bitterness, and anxiety. We can only pour out what we have stored inside. If we cultivate peace inside through forgiveness, gratitude, prayer, meditation, and positive thinking, we will naturally give peace to our world.The lecture concluded with an engaging interactive session where students shared how they deal with stress and academic pressure.The management and students of Crystal Galaxy College thanked Amb. Abukari Inbrana Awudu and the International Ambassadors of Peace Network (IAPN) for the thought-provoking engagement.
