If god do not make you a king and force yourself to be a king,your people wouldent serve you.whomever god gi ves to ghana,i accept.

Indeed if God do not crown u a king and u crown ur self , u will eventually fall. We have all seen wat de NDC members are doing and de ALMIGTHY GOD will reveal all their bad deeds.
It is God who is the maker of all thing so it is him who will set a king.
