Rev. Dr. Abraham Nana Opare-Kwakye has been elected as the next Moderator of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana (PCG).
He will leave the current role of Chairperson of the Ga Presbytery to take over from Rt. Rev Prof. J.O.Y. Mante.
His election took place at the 23rd General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana (PCG) in Abetifi Kwahu.

This year’s week-long meeting scheduled, which began on August 9, took stock of the stewardship of the leadership of the church, looked at the finances and statistics of every aspect of the ministry, and set targets for the subsequent year.
