“They held prayers against me and someone within the church who comes from Dormaa Ahenkro but stays at Sakumono called to inform me about the situation,” he said on Asempa FM.

The 2023 National Development Conference was organized by the Church of Pentecost at Gomoa Fetteh in the Central Region on July 26, 2023.

The conference, which is on the theme: “Moral vision and national development” brought together key personalities, stakeholders, bodies, and institutions in the country to deliberate on critical issues that border on the country’s development.

Among the speakers at the event were Vice President Dr. Mamoudu Bawumia; Speaker of Parliament, Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin; Chief Justice, Justice Gertrude Araba Esaaba Sackey Torkornoo; former President John Agyekum Kufuor; President of Ghana Journalist Association, Albert Kwabena Dwumfour; Former Minister of Women’s Affairs of Zimbabwe, Dr Olivia Nyembezi Muchena and Spokesperson of the National Chief Imam, Sheikh Aremeyaw Shaibu.

Touching on the theme, former president John Dramani Mahama expressed the concern that the country was fast losing its moral and ethical codes.

"We are faced with an erosion of our traditional values and Westernisation of our societies and adoption of alien cultures imported from elsewhere," he noted.

"What happened to our abhorrence for greed and theft", Mer. Mahama quizzed, saying “Why do we celebrate persons, who today are wealthy with dubious sources of income, and yet society is not concerned about the person's source of income."

He said "ethics have a direct impact on national development", adding that all societies that "have fallen lost their ethics and moral compass."
