Former President John Mahama has called for forgiveness for , popularly known as "Napo," the running mate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) presidential candidate, following his controversial statement that Muslims voting for the NDC is a "haram" (forbidden in Islam).

The NPP Vice Presidential candidate, addressing NPP party supporters, indicated that Muslims voting for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) is 'haram', citing Islamic principles as the basis for his statement.

According to him, Muslims should prioritize their faith when making political decisions, implying that voting for NDC would go against Islamic teachings.
