Former President John Agyekum Kufuor has expressed confidence that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) will win Wedneday’s general election.

Addressing the party’s final rally at the Trade Fair Centre on Sunday, Mr Kufuor said he had received a message from God which indicated that Nana Akufo-Addo, the NPP presidential candidate, will the presidential election.

"I must confess - I am a Christian but I hardly read the Bible. While I thought of what to say at this function, something told me to open the Bible and I read the Book of Joshua where I saw God directing Joshua how to lead Israel on to the promised land.

"God has spoken and his word is that the NPP would win Wednesday's elections, I had the feeling that the victory is starting from Accra through Eastern, Ashanti, Brong Ahafo and I am confident we would sweep Central and share the ballots in the other regions with our opponent," he said.

The atmosphere at the rally, attended by tens of thousands of people, was a charged, as the party laid out its case for election on Wednesday.

Addressing the rally, Akufo-Addo reiterated his pledge to build a factory in every district across the country and allocate $1 million to deal with issues of sanitation, water and infrastructure.

"If God gives me victory, what I can do I will, what I can't I won't but I won't disappoint Ghanaians. I will never mislead or lie to the people of Ghana; I'll do all the things I have promised,” he said.
