The incumbent General Superintendent of the Assemblies of God, Ghana, Rev. Stephen Yenusom Wengam, has rallied the church behind a growth agenda following a landslide victory at the 32nd Biennial General Council Meeting. Speaking at the meeting in Gomoa Fetteh, Central Region, Rev. Wengam emphasized the need for unity among church members, regardless of their support in the recent election.
The re-elected leader secured 3,727 votes, representing 89.61% of the total 4,159 valid votes cast, defeating his opponent Rev. Dr Kwame B. Bansah by nearly 60 percentage points. Rev. Wengam highlighted that while elections may sometimes cause tension, the process was conducted peacefully and transparently. He urged members to strengthen unity and work together in love to build a stronger church, drawing a parallel to the proverb, "One person cannot embrace a baobab tree," to emphasize the collective responsibility of leadership.
Key priorities for Rev. Wengam's second term include consolidating the church's transformation agenda, particularly the Centenary City Project, which aims to mark 100 years of Assemblies of God, Ghana. The church also reaffirmed its commitment to evangelism under the MM33 agenda of the World Assemblies of God Fellowship, with a determination to reach every village, town, and city with the Gospel.
