Methodist Bishop urges Ghanaian government to fulfill campaign promises
Most Rev Prof Johnson Kwabena Asamoah-Gyadu, Presiding Bishop of The Methodist Church Ghana, has called on the government to deliver on its campaign promises to the Ghanaian populace. He emphasized that citizens expect tangible results from pre-election commitments and that the government should not use the shortcomings of previous administrations as an excuse for current challenges. The Bishop stated that voters elected the current government for a new direction based on its promises. He made these remarks during an interaction with journalists at the 52nd Conference of The Methodist Church Ghana in Tema on August 19, 2026. Most Rev Prof Asamoah-Gyadu also highlighted the Church's role in supporting government efforts, particularly through an entrepreneurship program aimed at assisting young people with funding, workspace, capital, and tools to establish businesses, acknowledging that the government cannot address all needs independently.
