The Member of Parliament for North Tongu Constituency, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, has stated that the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, cannot be trusted with the affairs of the country.

According to him, for the Vice President to allow Rev. Victor Kusi Boateng, the founder and General Overseer of Power Chapel Worldwide, to touch his nomination forms indicates his failure in the fight for digitalization in the country.

Ablakwa explained that Rev. Kusi Boateng, with whom he shares a feud over what he has described as a double identity (an issue still pending in court), needs to be arrested by the Vice President, who doubles as the Chair of the Ghana Police Service Council, rather than being presented with NPP Presidential Forms for prayers.

“Ghana's Vice President and Chair of the Ghana Police Service Council, instead of directing the arrest of a man whom the courts have described as having a criminal double identity, chose to present him with his NPP Presidential Forms for prayers.

“The additional irony is that Vice President Bawumia has drifted away from the ailing economy and presented himself as a digitalization champion who has put in place systems to combat identity fraud. It doesn’t appear to occur to him that the Kusi Boateng/Kwabena Adu Gyamfi scandal highlights another abysmal failure on his part.

“As for Kusi Boateng/Kwabena Adu Gyamfi, we can appreciate that the fear of going to jail when his political protectors are no longer in power will keep driving his antics.

“Clearly, Bawumia cannot be trusted to end the impunity which is destroying our country, either manifesting as galamsey, state capture, corruption, nepotism, or identity fraud,” he said in a social media post.

On September 9, 2024, Bawumia made headlines for presenting his nomination forms to Rev. Kusi Boateng and the National Chief Imam for prayers before officially submitting them at the office of the Electoral Commission.

It may also be recalled that Victor Kusi Boateng has prophesied that Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, will be declared winner on December 9, after the 2024 polls.

According to him, the ruling NPP could risk losing a significant number of parliamentary seats to their biggest opponent, the National Democratic Congress NDC), if they are not cautious.

“The people that they say are my party members, NPP people, if they don’t take care, they will lose almost 7 to 10 seats but then if NDC also don’t take care, NPP will take over between 19 to 24 seats from them. The election is on the 7th, on the 8th the result will not come, everybody shall be jittery.

“The result will come on the 9th. Some people will try to cause mayhem so that people shall die and interestingly, they will call people on the street and the first day only 1000 people will show up, no one will show up on the second day and there shall be peace.

“And the result is obvious. Things are difficult, I know that there are two people coming but the Lord has told me that by the 9th of December, His Excellency Dr Mahamudu Bawumia shall be crowned the president of Ghana,” he prophesied amid cheers from the congregation.
