He used the opportunity to welcome John Dramani Mahama to the seat asking the lord to guide and empower hin to fulfil his purpose for the people of Ghana.

He said in a post shared via social media that “We give glory to the Lord for the peaceful and victorious conclusion of Ghana’s Presidential and Parliamentary elections. I commend all Ghanaians for their dedication to democracy and nation-building. I also extend heartfelt congratulations to the President-elect, His Excellency John “Ababio” Dramani Mahama, for the people’s trust and confidence in him. May the Lord guide and empower him to fulfil His purposes for Ghana over the next four years.

Similarly, I extend profound gratitude to Vice President Dr. Bawumia. His gracious acceptance of the election results demonstrates exemplary statesmanship and a deep commitment to democratic values. His courage and leadership in this critical moment have set the stage for national healing and unity. This act of dignity and strength will be remembered as a defining moment in Ghana’s democratic history.

One key takeaway from this experience is the critical role of selfless leadership in fostering peace and stability within societies, institutions, families, and nations. True leaders prioritise the collective good over personal interests, serving as instruments of unity and progress. I pray that the Lord will continue to raise such leaders across nations so we can live free from the fear of electoral violence. With such leadership, elections can indeed be celebrations of democracy and hope”.
