Godwin Ako Gunn of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) is wondering why some Christian leaders are condemning Alan Kyerematen instead of urging President Akufo Addo to sign the anti-gay bill.
According to Alan who is the founder and leader of the Movement for Change, it is important to elect a Christian leader, who embodies Christ-like qualities, to steer the nation toward transformation.
“As a predominantly Christian nation, as Christians, it is our responsibility that we elect a Christian leader who is also Christlike…If God touches your heart and you vote for Alan Kyerematen, the transformative leader, then I can assure you, as our Lord Jesus did on the cross, promise that ye shall be in paradise with him; you shall also be in paradise when I come into power” he said while speaking at the Church of Pentecost’s Easter Sunday Convention at the Dr. Thomas Wyatt Assembly.
Alan has however received backlash over this remark.
Ako Gunn during a panel discussion on The Platform programme on Peace FM said: “There’s nothing wrong with voting for a Christlike person and so I don’t understand why he is being criticized…I was expecting that they (Christian leaders) would rather add their voices to discussions on the anti-gay bill. It’s worrying. I’ve not heard anything from the Christian Council, or Peace Council; however, we are so quick to condemn Alan…I was expecting that they would rather lead the debate urging the President to assent to the bill”
