Lawyer Nana Obiri Boahen, a prominent private legal practitioner and former Deputy General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has voiced his thoughts on Rev. Isaac Owusu-Bempah‘s latest prophecy.
The head pastor of Glorious Word Power Ministries International prophesied that John Dramani Mahama, the presidential candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), would emerge victorious in the 2024 elections.
According to Rev. Owusu-Bempah, Mahama’s “kind-heartedness” has destined him to lead the country.
Speaking in Twi during a prayer session, Apostle Owusu-Bempah said, “Wo akomapa nti, nyankopong di oman nu ahye wo nsa. Bibiaa ntumi nsesa no,” which translates to, “Because of your kind-heartedness, God has handed over the country to you, and nothing can change it.”
The prophecy was delivered during a special prayer gathering in Accra on October 1, 2024, which Mahama had convened.
The prophecy marks a shift from hid earlier prophecies against Mr. Mahama that he would never be President again.
The former Deputy General Secretary of the NPP, Nana Obiri Boahen speaking in an interview, alluded to the biblical verse Matthew 8:26, wherein Jesus admonished His disciples, saying, “Ye of little faith why are you so afraid?”.
He further divulged that the NDC had orchestrated a meeting with the clergy as far back as February 2024, extending invitations to several prominent African pastors, many of whom ultimately declined the offer.
Expressing his dismay, Lawyer Nana Obiri Boahen lamented the degradation of political discourse to such a level, asserting that the fusion of religious prophecy with political ambition was a disservice.
Additionally, he noted that the NDC had secured substantial financial backing.
Lawyer Nana Obiri Boahen humorously remarked that Evangelist Patricia Asiedua, commonly known as Nana Agradaa, responded to Rev. Owusu Bempah’s prophecy by claiming that they had done everything possible for Mahama to win the election, only for Rev. Owusu Bempah to spoil it.
He also urged members of the NPP not to insult Rev. Owusu Bempah or any clergyman, but to allow them the freedom to make their prophecies.
