Akufo-Addo avoiding cars used by Mahama on advise of Owusu Bempah – Former DCE
Former District Chief Executive for Sekyere Afram
Plains Fuseini Donkor, claims President Akufo Addo
has declined to ride in any of the official
vehicles used by ex President John Mahama on the
advice of Rev. Owusu Bempah, who’s said to be
the President’s spiritual father.

According to him, there are spiritual reasons for
the President choosing to ride in his own cars
instead of using the bullet proof cars provided
for his safety and protection by the state, and
not because there are no cars at the Presidency
for his use.

The Director of Communications at the presidency,
Eugene Arhin, has disclosed that President Nana
Akufo-Addo is compelled to use his private
Landcruiser car and a 2007 BMW car, following the
200 state cars which government claimed has
disappeared from the pool of vehicles at the
presidency.

But speaking to Kasapa News, Hon. Fuseini Donkor
stated that the decision by the President not to
use any of the fortified vehicles available to him
beats human comprehension, adding that there could
only be a spiritual reason to the decision.

“There are enough cars at the Presidency for the
President’s use. The bullet proof Land Cruisers
and Toyota Avalon cars 2015 model which are in
good shape are parked at the Presidency. So If
now, we’re being told that the President cannot
use any of these cars and rather chooses to ride
in a 2007 BMW car left behind by ex President
Kufour, and uses his own campaign car when he’s
going outside Accra, then there must be a special
reason to his actions.”

He added: “What at all is frightening the
President Akufo Addo such that he does not want to
sit in cars used by President Mahama. My only
conclusion is that his spiritual father, Rev.
Owusu Bempah has advised him not to drive in any
of the cars used by President Mahama, and he
can’t disclose this to Ghanaians and so has to
tell a lie that there are no cars at the Flagstaff
House. I’ve no evidence, but the only
understanding that I get from this particular
posture of the President is that he’s acting on
the advice of his spiritual father that he
shouldn’t use those cars.”

Meanwhile, Rev. Owusu Bempah has not been
available to respond to the claims made against
him by the Hon. Fuseini Donkor.
