The Seventh-Day Adventist Church in Ghana (SDA) has strongly rejected claims that it has endorsed the candidature of Kennedy Agyapong to become NPP Flagbearer.

Some members of the Kennedy Agyapong campaign shared video of a prayer with Kennedy by a Pastor of the SDA churches and claimed that Kennedy had the backing of the SDA Church.

But in a swift rebuttal, the SDA Church strongly rejected the claim as false, clarifying that the video represented the personal sentiment of the pastor involved and not the SDA Church.

"A recent prayer offered for Hon. Kennedy Agyapong during a visit to one of our events has
been interpreted by some as a political endorsement. We wish to clarify that the sentiments
expressed in that prayer were pastoral in nature and do not represent an official position of the Church, " the SDA statement said.

"As a Church, we welcome all individuals, regardless of political affiliation, to worship and receive prayer. However, we do not endorse, support, or align with any political party
candidate."

The SDA Church reiterated its neutrality in Ghanaian politics and states it's open-door policy for all.

The Seventh-day Adventist Church does not participate in partisan politics. We urge all
political actors ag their supporters to refrain from using our platforms, messages, or worship
experiences for political purposes.

"We remain committed to being a spiritual home for all Ghanaians and a voice for peace, integrity, and unity."
