According to him, the Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Bernard Antwi Boasiako, popularly known as Chairman Wontumi, influenced him to dislike the then opposition leader Mahama.

However, he has now realized that Mahama’s good heart contradicts the negative image painted by Wontumi.

Speaking to his congregation on Sunday, February 16, 2025, Rev. Owusu-Bempah admitted his regret, stating, “I am pained because, in the past, I didn’t know him well, and we engaged in unnecessary conflicts. When I think about it now, I regret speaking against such a good man.”

He continued, “Chairman Wontumi was among those who made me dislike President Mahama.

He said a lot of negative things about him, which led me to form a wrong opinion. But now I see that Mahama is a good man, not because of politics, but because of his kind heart.”

Rev. Owusu Bempah also admitted that he and others wrongly opposed Mahama in the past.

“I didn’t know back then that he was such a good man. We spoke against him unjustly. Chairman Wontumi lied to me about him, and I believed those lies, which made me hate Mahama at the time.

“…Mahama should be allowed to continue as president even after his four-year term. When he is ready to step down, he should appoint someone else to continue his good work.”
