Ghana’s Apostolic Fathers have issued a declaration in support of former President John Dramani Mahama, praising his stance on cultural values and sovereignty after a U.S. university withdrew an honorary degree.
In a statement signed by Bishop Dr. Gideon Titi-Ofei on behalf of 18 Apostolic Fathers, the group commended Mahama for his “principled stance against the promotion of LGBTQI+ ideologies” and his commitment to Ghana’s legislative process.
The Lincoln University in Pennsylvania had reportedly withdrawn the honorary doctorate citing “additional information” but did not provide details.
The Fathers’ declaration described Mahama’s leadership as “a reflection of courage, quiet yet unyielding, firm yet measured, and principled yet respectful.”
The statement emphasized Ghana’s sovereignty and cultural values, saying the nation “remains a sovereign nation, shaped by its history, defined by its cultural values, and guided by a moral vision that cannot be outsourced nor overridden.”
The declaration concludes with a call for God’s blessing on Mahama and Ghana, affirming the nation’s commitment to “righteousness, justice, and truth.”
