Opoku-Agyemang’s selection shows Mahama’s dedication to strategic visions – Lady Reverend Lydia Kodua.
Head of Pentecostal Power Chapel, Lady Reverend Lydia Kodua has praised the selection of Prof. Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang as the first female Vice President of President John Mahama.
According to Lady Reverend Lydia Kodua, the choice reinforces Mahama’s commitment to the ideals of the ordinary Ghanaian and demonstrates his belief in inclusion and women empowerment.
This move marks a repeat of the party’s strategy in the 2020 elections, when the duo led the NDC to an improved performance, despite ultimately losing the election.
“President John Mahama has reinforced his commitment to the ideals of the NDC as a party that believes in inclusion and women empowerment as critical catalysts to achieving the Ghana we want,” Lady Reverend Lydia Kodua said.
She added that the choice of Prof. Opoku-Agyemang is a “true testament” to Mahama’s leadership commitment to achieving his strategic visions, projects, and programs towards sustainable socio-economic development.
“Women played cardinal roles in our developmental trajectory as a people and the choice of Prof Nana Jane Opoku Agyeman is a true testament to his leadership commitment to achieving his strategic visions, projects and programmes towards sustainable socio-economic development.”
Lady Reverend Lydia Kodua further stated that the choice resonates with Ghanaian socio-cultural values and urged all Ghanaians to support the NDC’s vision for the country.
“This decisive choice is not only prudent but reassuring the rank and file within the women’s fraternity and the nation at large, that Ghana after 67 years of independence is capable of deepening and changing the democratic strata for effective leadership and governance of its affairs.”
She expressed gratitude to President John Mahama for recognizing the importance of women in Ghana’s development and for demonstrating his commitment to their empowerment.
“This step also shows that President John Mahama is deeply committed to the women of Ghana and cannot thank them better than this. Let’s all embrace this direction.”
