NPP's PK Sarpong Exposes Pastors Frequently Seen Around Mahama Claiming To Be Praying For Him
NPP’s PK Sarpong has sparked controversy with a statement about the pastors frequently seen around former President John Dramani Mahama. In a Facebook post, he claimed that these religious leaders are not praying for Mahama but are instead looking for contracts and business deals. He described them as “businessmen in cassocks,” suggesting that their main interest is financial gain rather than offering spiritual support.

His statement has generated mixed reactions among Ghanaians. Some agree with him, arguing that many pastors in the country have become more interested in politics and wealth than in their religious duties. They believe that some pastors are only close to politicians because of the benefits they can get, such as contracts, donations, and financial support for their churches. Others, however, think Sarpong’s comments are unfair. They argue that pastors, like any other citizens, have the right to support politicians of their choice, and their presence around Mahama may not necessarily be for personal gain.
For years, politicians in Ghana have been closely associated with pastors and prophets, seeking their prayers and blessings. However, there have also been accusations that some religious leaders use their influence to gain financial benefits from politicians. Some pastors have been criticized for giving political prophecies that seem to favor candidates who support them financially.
PK Sarpong’s remarks add to the ongoing debate about the role of pastors in politics. Should they remain neutral, or is it acceptable for them to align with politicians? While opinions may differ, one thing is certain—the connection between religion and politics in Ghana remains strong, and this debate is unlikely to end anytime soon, especially as Mahama continues to attract the attention of religious leaders.
