According to a report from Ghanawab. In a recent interview on the Oman FM Boiling Point show, Samuel Koku Anyidoho, the former deputy general secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), revealed tensions among the clergy following a meeting between former President John Mahama and several pastors. Anyidoho alleged that the pastors are dissatisfied with Prophet Owusu Bempah, accusing him of betrayal.
According to Anyidoho, the primary objective of the meeting with Mahama was to pray for him and seek clarity on his plans for Ghana should he return to the presidency. He emphasized that there was no prior agreement for the pastors to issue any prophetic statements during this gathering.
The controversy stems from a recent declaration by Prophet Owusu Bempah, who asserted that God has returned leadership of the country to Mahama, praising his character and suggesting that he has been granted another opportunity to govern Ghana.
Anyidoho dismissed Bempah’s prophecy as unfounded, suggesting it was orchestrated by the NDC for political advantage. His remarks highlight a growing divide within the religious community regarding the political landscape and the influence of prophetic declarations.
The situation raises questions about the intersection of faith and politics in Ghana, as leaders like Mahama engage with religious figures in a bid to galvanize support ahead of future elections. As tensions simmer among the clergy, the implications for both Mahama’s campaign and the broader political climate remain to be seen.
This unfolding narrative reflects the complex dynamics at play as Ghana navigates its political future, with the role of religious leaders increasingly scrutinized.
