In a strongly worded statement titled "Religious Leaders Must Stay Within Their Lane-Leave Constitutional Matters Alone," statesman and founding member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr.
Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe, has cautioned pastors and prophets against meddling in the governance of Ghana. "Let me state clearly and unequivocally: this must not happen, and it will not happen," he declared, warning that Ghana's democracy must not be derailed by "pulpit proclamations." Dr.
Nyaho-Tamakloe expressed deep concern about the growing influence of religious figures in political discourse and constitutional interpretation.
He argued that the practice poses a direct threat to the nation's peace and democratic order, recalling a time in Ghana's history when a similar pattern led to dire consequences.
