OUR MANIFESTO: This is what YEN.com.gh believes in
The Bishop of the Anglican Diocese of Accra, Rt. Rev. Dr. Daniel S.M Torto has declared that “no man can dim the light” of the Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.
The vice president will be battling the likes of Trade and Industry Minister, Alan John Kwadwo Kyeremanten and the Agriculture Minister for the chance to lead the NPP into the 2024 elections.
A recent survey by the European Public Policy Institute (EPPI) disclosed that Dr. Bawumia has an “upper hand” over the trade and industry minister as the successor to President Akufo-Addo as the NPP’s presidential candidate for the 2024 elections.
Addressing congregants at the Easter Sunday Service of the Anglican Diocese of Accra, Rt. Rev. Torto urged the vice president to remain resolute and work for God and man because he is on a worthy cause.
“There is light ahead of you and only God can put that light off. No man and I mean no man can dim your light…,” the man of God told the vice president when he joined members of the church for the Easter Sunday worship.
He went ahead to describe the vice president as a unique leader who believes in religious tolerance and “acceptance as the number two gentleman of my country.”
“The entirety of Ghana and the Christian community has taken a keen interest in your humility, respect for people, and the diligence with which you approach your work,” he added.
