General Secretary of the oposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia has said President Akufo-Addo was regarded a messaiah during their early political days.
He however, shares no such sentiments for him, reports adomonline.
“As students, he was our mentor. Nana Akufo-Addo led or was part of the fight against the Union Government during Acheampong’s era and we were coming of electoral age. So, we saw him as a Messiah, mentor, the doyen of multi-party democracy and human rights advocacy but now, I am very disappointed,” he said.
“The reason why I say it is horrible is that when somebody who has not read the Bible before and has no idea about Jesus Christ or anybody, when that person commits a sin, I believe that even on the judgment day, the Lord may look favourably on him.
“But it cannot be the same when somebody who claims to be a Bishop or Pope who knows everything about the Bible, who prayed for forgiveness of sins on behalf of other people. If he is found committing the same sin as somebody who has never seen the Bible, I believe the judgement will be harsher on that person because he claims to be God’s representative,” he explained.
