He captioned the photo on Facebook with a message about patience and consistency.

Don’t rush your journey. What is meant for you will come together at the right time. Stay patient. Stay consistent.

This had NDC supporters wondering if there was a big announcement about Agyeman-Rawlings coming.

Some people in the comments wondered if she was about to become the Minister of Defence, something she has previously been tipped for.

"That means it was good Zenator waited patiently to be named Minister of Defence," one person noted.

This was in reference to the MP not being given an appointment by President John Mahama early in 2025.

Others had much loftier predictions, like the running mate slot for the NDC ahead of the 2028 election.

"This lady would have been a perfect presidential candidate for the NDC if Mahama were to pick her his running mate in 2024."

The Minister of Defence portfolio is being brought up because the previous minister, Omane Boamah, died in the August 6, 2025, helicopter crash that killed eight people.

Dr Cassiel Ato Forson, the finance minister, has also been acting as the defence minister.

This has been a source of criticism against the Mahama administration. In February, the Minority in Parliament called on the president to appoint substantive ministers to the Ministries of Defence and Environment following the death of the two former sector ministers in the helicopter crash.
