He emphasized the unusually low turnout of NPP supporters across the country, a development he feels cannot be fully explained by typical reasons.In an interview with Ashh FM, excerpts of which were shared by a Facebook user named Yaw Koshievi, Kodua attributed the party’s poor performance to several factors, including spiritual forces."It was as though our members decided not to vote," he remarked.

"In all sixteen regions, it was as if NPP supporters had made an agreement not to cast their votes. This is highly unusual and cannot be attributed to regular political reasons."During the interview, Kodua expressed his apprehension that some pastors, who have typically been allies of the NPP, had distanced themselves due to growing divisions and dissatisfaction within the party."I appeal to the pastors who intercede for us," he said.

"A lot of spiritual machinations occurred ahead of the 2024 elections. Things took place in the spiritual realm, which I believe influenced the outcome. Many pastors and women of prayer, who should have been praying for us, withheld their support because of anger, and that definitely impacted the results."Rev.
