Former President John Agyekum Kufuor has said
that he has been told by God that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Presidential
Candidate, Nana Akufo-Addo would win the December 7th polls.The former
President who was the guess of honour at the party's final rally held at the car
park of the Trade Fair Site in Accra said he had that great feeling that the
twice-defeated flagbearer of the party would win the elections when he woke up
on Sunday.
"I must confess, I am a Christian but I hardly read the Bible.
While I thought of what to say at this function, something told me to open the
Bible and I read the Book of Joshua where I saw God directing Joshua how to lead
Israel unto the promised land.
"God has spoken and his word is that the
NPP would win Wednesday's elections, I had the feeling that the victory is
starting from Accra through Eastern, Ashanti, Brong Ahafo and I am confident we
would sweep Central and share the ballots in the other regions with our
opponent," he said.
According to him, Ghana would be better under the
leadership of the NPP which he said worked to ensure that the country moved to a
middle-income status.
To him, the country would have been better off if the
NDC government had continued with the good works of the NPP.
He said
that the NPP is good at the governance of this country because its founders
designed the road map to Ghana attaining independence.
"The founders of
the UP tradition designed the strategies to Ghana becoming independent. Nkrumah
was only an addition and hence able to administer the country better...," he
added.
The former President further urged the youth of the country
especially first time voters to see this year's election as one that would shape
their future fofr the best.
"Wednesday's elections is no joke, it's about
our future...we have come to a cross-road and we would do the right thing with
the right leadership led by Akufo Addo supported by Bawumia...," he
declared.
Lifting up the hand of the Nana Addo, former President Kufour
declared that he was presenting the next President of Ghana to
Ghanaians. |
