President Mahama Visits Prophet Opambour’s Church to Express Gratitude After Election Victory.
President John Dramani Mahama, fresh from his remarkable victory over Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia in the 2024 presidential elections, attended a special thanksgiving service at the Ebenezer Miracle Worship Centre in Ahenema Kokoben. The church, led by the renowned Prophet Ebenezer Adarkwa Yiadom, popularly known as Prophet Opambour, offered the President a warm and heartfelt reception.
The service was marked by a spirit of celebration and reflection, with Prophet Opambour commending President Mahama for his humility, resilience, and unwavering commitment to Ghana’s progress. In his address, the prophet offered special prayers for the President, asking for divine wisdom, good health, and the strength to guide Ghana toward unity and development. Prophet Opambour expressed his joy at hosting the President, describing the visit as a great honor for his congregation.
In response, President Mahama shared his gratitude for the spiritual and moral support he received from Prophet Opambour during the election period. He revealed that the prophet’s prayers and guidance were instrumental in his success, saying, “Whatever the man of God said before the elections came to pass. I felt it was only right to take time off my schedule to come here and say thank you.” His heartfelt words resonated with the congregation, who applauded his humility and faith.
The event was followed by President Mahama’s visit to the Manhyia Palace, where he joined the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, in celebrating the Akwasidae Festival. This traditional festival, deeply rooted in Ashanti culture, serves as an occasion to honor ancestors and foster unity among the people.

Videos and photos from the thanksgiving service have gone viral on social media, with many praising President Mahama’s approachable nature and his acknowledgment of the role of faith in leadership.
