The call for peace, wisdom, and integrity in Ghana's 2024 elections has never been more urgent.
Opoku Onyinah, a respected Ghanaian theologian, televangelist, composer, and former chairman of The Church of Pentecost, has taken to social media to share a powerful message, urging Ghanaians to approach the upcoming elections with thoughtfulness and a deep sense of responsibility.
In his post, Opoku Onyinah reminded citizens that God is deeply invested in the nation's democratic process, but He will not choose the country's leaders directly.
Instead, he emphasized the importance of human agency in making the right choice. "God is deeply interested in Ghanaians and our participation in the democratic process," he wrote, encouraging Ghanaians to cast their votes prayerfully and wisely. "It is important that you cast your ballot for the individual you believe can lead the nation with integrity and good governance." His message resonated with many who believe that democracy is a spiritual as well as a civic duty. "God has chosen to work through humanity," Onyinah continued, stressing that, while the divine will might not directly shape the results of an election, it is through collective human action that the nation's future unfolds.
