Let the Cedi flourish under your leadership — Duncan-Williams to Mahama

Archbishop Nicholas Duncan-Williams, Founder and General Overseer of Action Chapel International, has called on President John Dramani Mahama to lead a bold transformation agenda that will strengthen the economy and unite the nation under a clear, long-term development vision.
Speaking during the National Day of Prayer and Thanksgiving held on Tuesday, July 1, at the State House in Accra, the revered clergyman urged President Mahama to use his second chance at leadership to make a lasting impact.
“Mr President, within three years, make a difference. Impact this world and change the narrative of Ghana. Let the Cedi thrive under your leadership. Let the Cedi flourish under your leadership and let things get better and better under your leadership like never before,” he declared, drawing strong applause from the congregation.
Archbishop Duncan-Williams also stressed the need for a values-based national identity anchored in patriotism and faith.
“We need to develop a strong love for God. Also, love the country and the love for Ghana,” he said, warning against political divisions that weaken national progress.
He called for the immediate development of a comprehensive national agenda, similar to long-term development plans in countries like China, India, and Dubai, which, according to him, have 100-year national visions that transcend political cycles.
“Ghana, our motherland, is where our vision and agenda are. Under the leadership of President John Dramani Mahama, a national agenda will be established to compel all stakeholders to follow that agenda,” he added.
The National Day of Prayer brought together political leaders, clergy, and civil society groups to intercede for peace, unity, and direction for the nation under the theme of thanksgiving and hope.
