Archbishop Nicholas Duncan-Williams, the Founder and General Overseer of Action Chapel International, has expressed strong confidence in President John Dramani Mahama’s ability to provide credible and transformational leadership during his time in office. In an interview on The Point of View with Bernard Avle on Channel One TV, which took place on Monday, July 7, Archbishop Duncan-Williams praised President Mahama’s renewed sense of purpose, describing him as both a visionary and a selfless leader.
He emphasised that the President’s return to office is based on his experience and a clear determination to learn from the past in order to pave a more impactful path for Ghana’s development. “When you observe some of the crises on our continent, it just doesn’t make sense,” he remarked. “I don’t want to name specific countries, but it is illogical for us to regress despite all that we have.
Our country and continent have had some outstanding leaders, and we still have great leaders in certain areas.” He concluded by stating, “There is no reason why our continent, and our country Ghana, should not thrive and flourish. There is no reason why our currency cannot perform better. With the gold reserves, oil, and cocoa we possess, we can achieve greater success.”
He continued, “We just need visionary leaders and selfless leaders. And I believe that President John Dramani is a visionary leader, a selfless leader, because he has been here before. He has learned from his past mistakes, and he has come back with a drive and passion and a determination to correct the mistakes of the past and make a difference and to go down in history as one who walked and came back with a difference.”
The Archbishop’s endorsement comes at a time when the country is focused on inclusive governance, economic stability, and renewed faith in political leadership. His comments add to the national discourse around leadership accountability and the expectations of the current administration.
