Accra: As Ghana prepares for the December 7 Presidential and Parliamentary elections, a Non-Denominational Christian Youth Group, Youth in Prayer, has called on Ghanaians to stand in the gap for the country. The Group, comprising members from various Churches, will hold an all-night vigil on Friday, November 15, 2024, at Action Chapel International in Accra. According to Ghana News Agency, a statement issued by the Group said the purpose of the vigil was to pray and secure the destiny of the country through intercession and to seek God's timely intervention. It said the prayers would begin at 2100 hours on Friday, November 15, and continue until the morning of Saturday, November 16, 2024. The statement noted that the all-night service would be led by Archbishop Nicholas Duncan-Williams and other influential spiritual leaders, including Reverend Dr. Ebenezer Markwei of Living Streams International, Bishop Gideon Titi Ofei of Pleasant Place Church, Reverend Robert Ampiah-Kwofi of Global Revival Ministries, Ap ostle General Sam Korankye Ankrah, and Bishop James Saah of Action Chapel. The Group emphasized the importance of the event, stating, "Whether we admit it or not, Ghana's election this year is a crucial one, and we need to pray fervently, stand in the gap and secure the destiny of our nation." It highlighted that one of the main attractions of the seven-hour prayer session would be the powerful worship sessions led by Minister Joe Mettle, Lady Elsie Otoo, Rev. Ella Duncan-Williams, and Minister Kofi Karikari. To ensure inclusivity, the statement mentioned that those unable to attend in person could still participate as the prayer meeting would be streamed live on the Church's Facebook page and YouTube channel, as well as on the official social media accounts of Archbishop Duncan-Williams.
