The Member of Parliament for Ellembelle Constituency Emmanuel Armah-Kofi Buah, is calling on his fellow MPs, especially those in the National Democratic Congress (NDC), to put aside their pride and serve their constituents with humility.
He also urged Ghanaians to be realistic about their expectations. Buah made these remarks at his thanksgiving service, held at the Aya Community Center in the Ellembelle district. As written in Psalm 9:1, “I will give thanks to you, Lord, with all my heart; I will tell of all your wonderful deeds.”
This scripture was made manifest as Emmanuel Armah-Kofi Buah, the Deputy Minority Leader and four-term Member of Parliament for Ellembelle constituency, joined supporters and sympathizers in an NDC victory thanksgiving and praise ceremony.
The celebration marked Buah’s re-election, secured with an overwhelming mandate from his constituents, granting him another four-year term. This victory is significant for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Ellembelle constituency.
Dressed in white, supporters gathered to express heartfelt gratitude to their creator for Buah’s significant victory. With 32,281 votes, Buah decisively defeated his New Patriotic Party (NPP) opponent, Kwasi Bonzo, who secured 18,608 votes in the recent elections
This overwhelming victory is a testament to Buah’s dedication to the people of Ellembelle Constituency, where he has served as a four-term Member of Parliament.B
Prophet Whajah Afful made a bold prophecy while leading the intercessors’ prayer, declaring that the Member of Parliament will progress from his current position and become the President of Ghana.
During the ceremony, prayers were also offered for Ghana as the country prepares for a transition of power to a new president. This moment of national reflection and prayer is crucial as Ghana navigates this significant political milestone.
The president of Sacred Action Church Apostle Francis Andoh, delivered a powerful message at a thanksgiving service, reminding the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to express heartfelt gratitude to God for their victory. He emphasized that it was God’s favor, not their own strength or abilities, that secured their win over the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
“On the Vice President Bawumia’s statement that the NDC didn’t win, but rather the NPP lost, holds profound meaning. In essence, he’s saying that the NDC’s victory wasn’t solely due to their efforts or exceptional qualities, but rather because God favored them over the NPP. It’s a testament to the idea that the outcome of the election was divinely ordained, and that the NDC’s win is a blessing for Ghana as a whole,” he explained.
Apostle Andoh’s words served as a humble reminder to the NDC, acknowledging that their success is not solely attributed to their efforts, but rather to the divine guidance and favor they received.
With a thankful heart and spirit of worship, Emmanuel Armah-Kofi Buah, the fifth-time Member of Parliament-elect for the Ellembelle constituency, urged his fellow NDC MPs to humble themselves and prioritize serving their constituents.
This call to action emphasizes the importance of staying grounded and focused on the needs of the people they represent.
“The outcome of the election isn’t just a victory for the NDC, but a clear rejection of the NPP’s policies that went wrong. The NDC must take heed of the people’s concerns and criticisms and govern in a way that earns the approval of Ghanaians. We’re also guided by the lessons learned from our colleagues who lost in unprecedented ways,” he said.
The message is clear the NDC must bring about change and do things differently, marking a departure from politics as usual.” He stated.
He also urged Ghanaians to be realistic about their expectations “We firmly believe that just as God has paved the way for us, He will also provide the necessary resources to drive development in our country. I urge all NDC members to be patient, manage their expectations, and rally behind our president.”
“Let us seek God’s favor to guide our president’s decisions, enabling him to fulfill his plans for the country and implement the promises outlined in our party’s manifesto.”
