Former Deputy General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Koku Anyidoho, has expressed displeasure with Rev. Isaac Owusu-Bempah, founder and leader of Glorious Word Power Ministry International, for referring to John Dramani Mahama, the NDC’s flagbearer for the 2024 elections, as a kindhearted man.
Owusu-Bempah, during a fellowship with the former president and other clergy members on October 1, 2024, revealed that God had endorsed Mahama to be the next president of Ghana due to his good heart.
However, speaking in an interview on Adom FM on October 2, 2024, Koku Anyidoho challenged this assertion, questioning the basis for describing Mahama as kindhearted.
Anyidoho criticised Mahama for allegedly neglecting the late former president, John Evans Atta Mills, by not ensuring that his final resting place was properly maintained.
While Anyidoho did not dispute Owusu-Bempah’s prophecy outright, he questioned the claim that Mahama’s leadership was marked by kindness.
"Which kindheartedness? A kindheartedness that couldn’t build Asomdwee Park? Is that good? Hold on, he said kindheartedness.
“I am not saying his prophecy is fake, but he is saying kindheartedness. The man who made you a running mate, vice president, and then president. You benefited most from his death because one moment you were vice president, and the next moment you became president. Yet, where he was buried, you couldn’t do anything about it," Anyidoho said.
He further emphasised that "At a point in time, the tombstone was sitting on a cement block. I had to go and clean the place. For four and a half years, we pleaded with you, but you refused to renovate the place, and this is kindheartedness."
How is @JDMahama a man with a kind heart when he left the tomb of the late Atta Mills unattended to? Is this the kind heart Owusu Bempah is talking about?- Koku Anyidoho #DwasoNsem#GhanaPolls2024 #ReOccupyJulorbiHouse #iChooseJohnMahama John Dramani Mahama #AntiGalamseyPact pic.twitter.com/Paj4NKqqwK
