While the biggest opposition New Patriotic Party and other smaller parties are optimistic of supplanting the ruling National Democratic Congress in the 2016 generals elections, a renowned Muslim cleric, Malam ShamunaUstaz Jibril, does not believe that the Ghanaian elections will come off next year as scheduled. Short of elaborating why there would not be elections in 2016 as Ghana’s constitution demands, Malam Shamuna Ustaz Jibril, who is credited with many predictions which he attributes to God and through his powers, noted that although Nana AddoDankwaAkufo-Addo was likely to be elected president in 2016, he nevertheless, doubt if there would be elections at all.
