Chief Executive Officer of the Atta Mills Institute and former Deputy General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Samuel Koku Anyidoho has criticized former President John Dramani Mahama for his meeting with the clergy.
In a post on X, Samuel Koku Anyidoho referenced the former President’s fellowship with the clergy, and labeled him as a hypocrite who only knows God because he needs him.
Anyidoho made a specific reference to Mahama’s cancellation of the National Day of Prayer and Thanksgiving, which was instituted by the late President John Atta-Mills.
He accused Mahama of assuming a godlike position by canceling this national event, implying that Mahama and his followers, in Anyidoho’s view, elevated themselves above the religious practice, worshipping their own ideals instead of God. “You took over and consciously cancelled the, National Day of Prayer and Thanksgiving instituted by President Atta-Mills and became your own god that you and ur followers worshipped.”
In his post, Anyidoho sarcastically remarks that Mahama “now knows God,” hinting at what he sees as a sudden attempt to align with religious practices.
He concludes with the biblical phrase, “we have all sinned & fallen short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23), which suggests he believes Mahama is trying to seek redemption or a newfound religious connection. “You now know God? I guess we have all sinned & fallen short of the glory of God.”
