  "account": "The Reverend Dominic Yeo, Global Chairman of the World Assemblies of God Fellowship, has praised President John Mahama for his visionary and transformational leadership during a courtesy visit to the President's office in Accra. Accompanied by Rev Dr Stephen Yenusom Wengam, General Superintendent of the Assemblies of God in Ghana, Yeo expressed gratitude for the government's support in organizing the Church's 10th Triennial World Assemblies of God Congress, scheduled to take place from October 14 to 16 at the Accra International Conference Centre. Both President Mahama and First Lady Lordina Mahama, members of the Assemblies of God, are attending the Congress as Special Guests of Honour. Yeo recalled that Ghana was chosen to host the Congress after it secured political independence, becoming the first country south of the Sahara to do so. He emphasized Ghana's historical significance in hosting the event, noting that it was the first African nation to do so. Yeo highlighted the immense responsibility of hosting such a large-scale event and expressed satisfaction with Ghana's preparations. He credited the President for setting an example for other believers actively participating in politics while maintaining their faith and values. Yeo also commended the President for the stability of the Ghanaian currency and the country's improving economic performance. President Mahama expressed his happiness at the Congress being held in Ghana, believing it would be a successful event and that attendees would remember their time in the country fondly. Rev Dr Wengam also thanked President Mahama for his support in securing the Accra International Conference Centre as the venue for the Congress.",
