Prophet Patrick Nhyiraba Comments on Election 2016

We are in that era of our democratic dipensation as nation where the atmoshere is filled with many political fanatisms. Many are optimistic about the outcome of this year’s election due for November 2016. The airwaves are filled with many talks. Politicians are planning out campaigns. And with so many death news of stakeholders in this year alone, many are uncertain about the fate of the nation.







Our only hope is for God to grant us a peaceful, tranparant and successful election without the shedding of blood as in recent times we have heard and seen amongst neighbouring countries. Men of God are on the rise with the gospel of “Peace.” 


Amongst the many Men of God in the nation, Prophet Patrick Nhyiraba, the Founder and General Overseer of the Light Prophectic Worship Centre gives his comments on Election 2016.

Pray For Peaceful Elections - Rt. Rev. Dr Setorwu Ofori

Rt. Rev. Dr Setorwu Ofori, Moderator of the Global Evangelical Church, has urged Ghanaians to pray fervently for the nation to enjoy peace before, during and after the 2016 elections.


He said “if we want the country to change and to continue to live in peace, there is the need for every Ghanaian to pray for the nation intensively and also bring the Word of God to everyone.”


The moderator was preaching on the theme: “The Bible, guide to Godly leadership” to mark the 2016 Bible Week Celebration nationwide at the Fountain of Glory Assemblies of God Church, West Legon, in Accra recently.


He said Christians must not relent in their efforts to use the Bible since it transformed the individual’s life and that of others.


Rev. Dr Ofori said though written on paper like other books, the Bible could not be compared to any book because it was inspired by God and was the most powerful transformational tool for Christians.


The Bible was inspired by God; God used human minds, human hands to say what He wants us to know. The Word of God (the Bible) carries power; it carries authority; it moves the lives of people and brings transformation,” he stressed.


The moderator said Jesus had set the example for true leadership and teamwork which the country could draw from His example to bring about Godly leadership as Christians demonstrated that the Word of God was the foundation.


Rev. Dr Emmanuel Anim, member of the National Council of the Bible Society of Ghana, said the theme for the Bible Week celebration was relevant as the country prepared for the 2016 elections to choose leaders to lead her for the next four years.


“The nation can never experience true transformation until we begin to realize that it is God who calls leaders and ask them to be selfless examples to others,” he said.

Ghanaians Are To Be Envoys of Peace

Dr. Lawrence Tetteh, President of Lawrence Tetteh Ministries (LTM), has asked Ghanaians to be envoys of peace to ensure peaceful presidential and parliamentary elections, on November 7, 2016.


“Ghanaians should turn to God for peaceful elections and asked the good Lord to give them righteous leaders since righteousness exalts a nation”.


Speaking to Ghana News Agency at the end of a three-day crusade held at the Blackstars Square in Accra at the weekend, he stressed: “Sin is a reproach to a nation. When the righteous rules the people rejoice.”


It was organized in collaboration with LTM and the Diocesan Bishop of Methodist Church, Ghana; Right Reverend Dr. Samuel Kofi Osabutey.


The event was patronised by personalities like Vice President Kwesi Amissah-Arthur, Mr. Julius Debrah, Chief of Staff and Mr. Edwin Nii Lante Vandepuje, Minister of Youth and Sports.


Leading political leaders such as Nana Addo Danquah Akufo-Addo, Presidential Candidate of the main opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), also attended the crusade and used the platform to advocate peaceful elections.


Dr. Tetteh also President and Founder of UK-based Worldwide Miracle Outreach, said prayer is key to national peace and stability since “a prayerless nation is a powerless nation”.


He said people should not hide behind politics to destroy people’s hard won careers and credibility.







He noted that although Ghana could boast of a cream of politicians, it is obvious that only National Democratic Congress or NPP could win Election 2016.


He said it is therefore necessary for President John Dramani Mahama, who is seeking re-election and Nana Akufo-Addo to be circumspect in their choice of words.


“Our leaders should put Ghana first in their agenda. Every Ghanaian should also shy away from the culture of insults.”


This he said would promote political sustenance to promote development and facilitate the improvement of the quality of the living standards of the citizenry.


“The nations should not lose sight that it is the hands of God that is sustaining the nation”.


Dr. Tetteh said leaders are appointed by God and referred to the late Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, who was imprisoned yet led Convention Peoples Party to become President of the First Republic.


He said Flight Lieutenant Jerry John Rawlings was also in prison but later became a head of state.


“President John Agyekum Kufuor and late President John Evans Atta Mills least expected to be presidents yet became one and every Ghanaian knew how President Mahama became president. Ghanaians should therefore seek the face of God and not lean on their own understanding, achievements and intellectual capacity”, he added.
