In effect, the head pastor of the Glorious Word and Power Ministry believes the NPP will be booted out of the Jubilee House with Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia as its flagbearer.

The vice president is the only prominent non-Christian in the elephant fraternity being widely tipped to succeed President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo as the NPP’s presidential candidate in the 2024 elections.

He is seen by many political watchers as the key to breaking the 8-year cycle.

Owusu Bempah, however, has other ideas and he disclosed this during a sermon in his Church according to a Peace FM report. He said the NPP could lose the elections should a non-Christian lead it into the 2024 elections.

“God has revealed something about the NPP to me. It is the hardened heart of one person. God does not want NPP to stay in power because of that person. He is the second in command,” the controversially maverick pastor stated in an obvious reference to the vice president.
“One thing God forbids is for someone to touch Christians or followers of Christ so if you have any intention to victimize Christians with your power, God will not let you enjoy the power. This is a prophecy, not an advice. NPP may not be able to hold on to power because of one person. Just because of that person. God knows the person’s heart and that person won’t help Christians if he is given power,” he added.

Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh reported that the Bishop of the Anglican Diocese of Accra, Rt. Rev. Dr. Daniel S.M Torto declared that “no man can dim the light” of Dr. Bawumia.

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.
