The founder and leader of Glorious Word Power Ministry International, Reverend Isaac Owusu Bempah, has accused the Inspector General of Police, Dr. George Akuffo Dampare, of supervising an attempt on his life after he was arrested in September 2021.

Addressing members of his church during a service on Sunday, September 22, 2024, Rev. Bempah said masked police officers who arrested him from his church attempted to inject him with a deadly substance, which he vehemently resisted in a tussle.

“Why do NPP members keep insulting me? What wrong have I done them? You made the IGP arrest me and wanted to kill me; the IGP was going to kill me. Do you know the IGP was going to kill me? He was going to inject me to death, and Nana Akufo-Addo did nothing to him. He hasn’t been questioned on who the police officers that came for me deep in the night were,” he told his church.

According to Rev. Bempah, who claimed to have some evidence to back his claim, some eight masked police officers came to pick him up while he was in detention.

“While in the cells, I saw the police officers come for me and put me in a pickup. I was placed between them with handcuffs on my hands. One of them sitting in front brought out a syringe and wanted to inject me… I held it tight, leading to a struggle, and as a result, the syringe broke. I kept shouting for those in the cells to hear me. Even one police officer who recently came home to corroborate this heard me,” he stated.

Reverend Bempah noted that he subsequently asked his brother and junior pastors who were at the station to keep watch at the police station while he remained in detention.

According to him, the registration number on the pickup truck that came to pick him turned out to be the number plate assigned to an old Honda Accord.

“Do you know that our search at DVLA revealed that the number on the pickup belonged to an old Honda Accord? I am told that is the car that Dampare uses to pick people up and kill them. Dampare wants to kill me; can you, Dampare, kill me?” he questioned.

He expressed disappointment with the ruling New Patriotic Party, including President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, for treating him badly amidst his trouble with the police and subsequently allowing their members to attack him.

“When I was being sent to the cells, John Boadu came there, and I asked him why they were treating me like that. He told me I shouldn’t be worried and that something would be done about it the next day. I called Chairman Wontumi, and he said the leaders are angry with me, and that it is only [Rev] Victor Kusi Boateng who can cause my release. So I said, what? Chairman, is that what you are telling me?

“I was detained for four days, but I still forgave you after your people came to beg me, and today you are allowing your people to attack me on the radio and lying about me conspiring with Stephen Wingam, leader of Assemblies of God and Archbishop, where? Don’t you know we are in an election year? Don’t you know God brought you to power through me in 2016 and 2020?” he questioned.

He further warned the NPP to be cautious about attacking him, adding that the consequences could affect the party’s electoral fortunes.
