The Member of Parliament for Assin South Rev. John Ntim Fordjour says President Nana Akufo-Addo and Speaker Prof Mike Ocquaye will undoubtedly change perceptions people have about politics and politicians in Ghana.

On a continent where political leaders are deemed to be corrupt, with some of them reportedly dabbling in black magic (juju), the young politician is confident Ghana's future looks brighter with the newly elected God fearing leadership sworn into office on January 7, 2017.
