Former Deputy General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Samuel Koku Anyidoho, has thrown his weight behind President-elect John Mahama’s vision of resetting Ghana on the basis of hard work and prayer.
In a post shared on his official X page, Koku Anyidoho indicated that the pillars chosen by John Mahama reflect those of the late President Evans Atta Mills.
With this linkage, he backed Mahama’s approach for the nation’s success.
“I saw President Mills work hard & also depend on his belief in God through fervent prayers. He personally prayed before/after every Cabinet meeting. I personally believe in prayers. If we are resetting to the days of fervent prayer and hard work, great. Ghana First,” he wrote.
During his 2024 election campaign, John Mahama promised that, if elected, he would declare a ‘National Day of Prayer’ to seek divine guidance for his leadership.
After winning the December 7, 2024 polls, John Mahama has reaffirmed this commitment, emphasizing that prayer will play a key role in his governance moving forward.
In his New Year message, Mahama pledged, “This is the time we need to engage in fervent prayers more than we did during the campaign, for God to grant us the strength and wisdom to implement measures that will make Ghana a better place to live. All I will say is that it is finished; God has already done it.”
“We will work tirelessly to correct the outgoing administration’s many wrongs, tackle corruption with dogged determination, and reduce excessive government expenditures.”
