Prophet Francis Amoako Atta, the Founder of the Lord’s Parliament Chapel, has claimed that former First Lady Nana Konadu Agyemang-Rawlings damaged her prospects of becoming Ghana’s first female President by forming her own political party.
The Prophet claims that the seat of governance was intended for women, but it has always been ruled by men. She was thus destined to lead the country, but she failed to do so because she followed the wrong advise.
“Konadu Agyemang Rawlings was supposed to take the seat, but she was mislead.” On Tuesday, March 8, 2022, he declared on the Anopa Bofo morning show, “Someone gave her bad advise.”
Nana Konadu disassociated herself from the National Democratic Congress (NDC), the party that her late husband, Flight Lieutenant Jerry John Rawlings, founded and headed, in the run-up to the 2016 general elections.
According to the cleric, she was meant to stay in the NDC party and advance through the ranks, eventually being chosen as a running mate for Vice President, then the party’s leader, and lastly the country’s elected President.
“Because Ghana is a male-dominated society, if you don’t become a Vice President, you’ll have a hard time becoming President.” God had prepared that woman for the job till the moment came, and she took bad advise and was shifted,” he told Nana Yaa Brefo, the morning show’s host.
“In life’s school, the car you choose decides how fast or slow you move,” he continued. Your spouse [Jerry John Rawlings] has been handed the vehicle to take you to your [Nana Konadu] destination. You get out of the car a short way from your destination, to begin from where?”
