The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has resorted to begging for votes after condemning the New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo for doing the same.
A senior member of the NDC, Kwamena Ahwoi, pleaded with some of members of clergy in Accra to convince members of their congregation to vote for President John Mahama.
Speaking at a meeting with the clergy in Accra, Mr Ahwoi said “we beg you as we meet with you today [Wednesday], we are not hiding the fact that we are asking you to talk to your congregations to vote for our president and our parliamentary candidates.”
In Mr Ahwoi’s view, the NDC stands for peace, unity and nationhood, a message he said the clergy must convey to their congregants.
“The choice is very clear; it is between peace and violence. It is a choice between unity and division. It is a choice between nationhood and ethnicity. We beg you, listen to our message. Convey our message to your congregation.”
Mr Ahwoi also highlighted the NDC’s ability to adapt over the years from the revolutionary party it was to what it is in its current incarnation.
“We have rebranded ourselves. We have especially through Professor Mills, succeeded by President Mahama, completely turned the NDC around… the times have changed so the NDC has changed with it. The times have changed, our governance pattern has changed with the times.”
Julius Debrah, the Chief of Staff, who was also at the meeting, promised that the next NDC government will provide jobs for the teeming youth in the country, as it has laid a solid foundation to propel the country’s economic growth to fuel job creation.
Mr. Debrah also gave the assurance that his party’s campaign will be “devoid of insults, unnecessary attacks and unwarranted insults.
He encouraged NDC supporters to “desist from activities that will lead to trouble, hooliganism and things like that.”

These are the enemies the Bible talk's about in Luke 19:27 they do evil things and come back to beg, no amount of words can stop God from allowing the change to come for voice of the people is the voice God, let our prayer says what the Bible say's in Luke 19:27 Spiritually bring these enemies before God and slay them for their wicked plans. Mr Prez your mistakes sound like a deliberate once to punish the electorates by increase and invade more taxes so now you have clearly expose how you are that indeed you can not take any decision you are ruing the nation just like the survive of the fitters who can survive your hardship can live, Mr Prez the voices of the people is the voices of God, if I understood the Constitution clearly it didn't say you only have four years that means if you do not win the 2016 election you another chance to contest other elections so stop forcing for the seat which is not yours. Ghana need peaces so be it. God bless Ghana A Change is coming!!!
I'm waiting for Asiedu Nketia, Solomon Nkansah, Kofi Adam, Julius Debra, And Alottey Jacob to react to this statement. Again, I'm waiting for those who use abusive language on this platform all the time. NPP supporters are also strong at this time, but some will never stop insulting our President. Criticism is not equal to insult.
AFTER INSULTS UPON INSULTS ON THE PASTORS AND THE CHURCH FROM THE DEVILS CAMP,CALLING PORF. MARTEY, OWUSU BEMPA AND OTHERS DEVILS, YOU ARE NOW BEGGING THE CLERGY TO PREACH TO THE THEIR MEMBERS TO VOTE FOR YOU. TWEAAAAKAI. DO YOU THINK THE CLERGIES HAVE THE MINDS OF THEIR MEMBERS IN THE POCKETS? OR THE MEMBERS ARE FOOOLS? THE CLERGIES ARE NOT GETTING TITHES, THE OFFERINGS, THE GIFTS AND BENEFITS THEY USED TO GET WHEN THE ECONOMY WAS GOOD AND BOOMING UNDER THE THEN NPP ADMINISTRATION . THE MEMBERS IN CHURCH ARE NOW POOR IF NOT POORER. THEY CANNOT PAY THEIR CHILDREN'S SCHOOL FEES, HOSPITAL BILLS, ELECTRICITY AND WATER BILLS AS WELL AS TRANSPORTATION COST LET ALONE TITHES AND OFFERINGS IN THE CHURCH. LET ME ASSURED YOU SIR, THE MEMBERS WILL HOOT AND SHOUT AT THE PASTOR WHO WILL ATTEMPT TO CAMPAIGN IN THE CHURCH. HAVE YOU PEOPLE FORGOTTEN SO SOON, THAT YOU TOLD THE CLERGIES TO LEAVE THE POLITICS PREACH THE SALVATION MESSAGE? WE HAVE ALREADY TOLD THEM TO VOTE AGAINST NDC. WE HAVE ALREADY MADE UP OUR MINDS AND IT IS TOO LATE FOR PROF. AHWOI TO CAMPAIGN IN THE CHURCHES. THE SO CALLED CLERGIES WHO MET YOU CAN TAKE ANY AMOUNT FROM YOU BUT THEY CANNOT CONVINCE ANY BODY TO VOTE FOR YOU. THE BATTLE IS THE LORD'S.
Hypocrites. where were these war mongers when their party/MP's and communication team were insulting the Clergy without remorse. So it's election time and you are begging the same clergy to convince their members to vote for you. Time will tell. It's just 2 weeks away and Ghanaians will tell you their minds. We are not foo_lish and forgetful as the NDC as a whole thinks we are. Why are you afraid to lose power??????. because of your create, ***barred word*** & chop, chop whilst Ghanaians are suffering. CHNAGE IS COMING. People as at now have made up their mind and the clergy cant force their congregation to vote for the NDC or NPP.
You expect the Clergy to stand in front of a congregation and say they should vote for NDC? How desperate can you be to go to that extent? By the way if your party has done so well in government, is peaceful etc., and you are sure of winning, why not relax in your comfortable homes?
