The Member of Parliament for Assin South, Rev John Ntim Fordjour, has boldly declared that no presidential candidate presented by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) can match Dr Mahamudu Bawumia in the 2028 elections.
Rev Ntim Fordjour claimed God has anointed Dr Mahamudu Bawumia to lead the New Patriotic Party (NPP) to the promised land in 2028.
According to Rev Ntim Fordjour, God can take anyone and anoint them, be it a Christian or a Muslim.
He claimed that God’s anointing is on Dr Bawumia to lead Ghana into prosperity.
Speaking at Mankessim during Dr Bawumia’s Central Region tour on Tuesday, September 30, Rev Fordjour stated, “I’m a Christian, I’m a pastor, and the Bible I read tells me that God is no respecter of persons. God can take anyone and anoint them, and it doesn’t matter whether the person is a Christian or a Muslim. He can use them to rule over His country and make His people prosper.
“The person I have seen such an anointing on is Dr Bawumia. The one God has anointed to lead us to the promised land in 2028 is Dr Bawumia,” he declared.
Rev Ntim further highlighted that no NDC presidential candidate can be compared to Dr Bawumia.
“My brothers and sisters, my elders, I beg of you – just take a look at all the leaders in the NPP, and also at those who have announced their intention to lead the NDC, and compare. Tell me, who among them, if we put them up against Dr Bawumia, can stand him? Who? There’s nobody”.
“If we change Dr Bawumia, we will miss the penalty”, Rev Ntim Fordjour added.
However, the Global InfoAnalytics’ new poll has revealed that Johnson Asiedu Nketia of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) holds a slim lead over Dr Mahamudu Bawumia in a potential 2028 presidential matchup.
The poll shows Asiedu Nketia commands 50 per cent of voter support, while Dr Bawumia follows closely with 45 per cent, with the 5 per cent of respondents preferring another candidate.
According to Global InfoAnalytics, the narrow margins highlight the prospect of a fiercely contested race if the matchup materialises.
