Renowned Ghanaian preacher, Rev. Isaac Owusu Bempah, founder of the Glorious Word Power Ministry, has predicted a severe setback for the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the upcoming 2024 election. Speaking at the Imperium Gathering, an event held last Friday, Owusu Bempah declared that the NPP's loss would be "disgraceful," capturing widespread attention for his strong stance on the future of the party.
In his address, Owusu Bempah asserted that his spiritual insight showed the NPP’s electoral defeat as inevitable. He cited what he describes as divine intervention in the outcome, hinting that a change in leadership would be beneficial for the country. According to him, the former president and leading candidate from the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, possesses a “good heart” and aligns with divine favor in this election.
The prophet expressed a sense of urgency, emphasizing his ongoing prayers for a leadership shift and describing Mahama as someone genuinely focused on Ghana’s well-being. He mentioned that this alignment with “the Lord’s side” is what differentiates Mahama from other candidates. According to Owusu Bempah, this spiritual aspect suggests a clear path to victory for Mahama and a difficult journey for the NPP, should it remain on its current course.
Owusu Bempah’s statements are not entirely surprising; he has a long history of making prophetic declarations about Ghana's political landscape. Known for his predictions about national events, he previously claimed that the NPP would only have a chance at victory if Kennedy Agyapong, an outspoken party member, became the party's flagbearer. His earlier remarks, which surfaced in November 2023, argued that a lack of robust, bold leadership could hinder the NPP's appeal to voters, fueling speculation within party circles about potential shifts in strategy and leadership.
This latest prophecy has drawn attention to the divide within the NPP, with party loyalists and insiders now debating the credibility of Owusu Bempah's warning and its impact on voter morale. Some have dismissed his prophecy as subjective and politically charged, while others view it as an impartial warning that highlights the challenges facing the party.
Owusu Bempah’s insights come at a time when Ghana’s political climate is marked by heightened tensions. The NDC and NPP have exchanged accusations on various issues, including governance quality and economic management. His perspective adds a religious and moral dimension to the political dialogue, sparking discussions on how faith and spirituality influence Ghanaian politics.
Ultimately, Owusu Bempah’s predictions underscore the stakes in the 2024 election, reminding both political parties and voters of the broader implications of this pivotal moment in Ghana’s history. Whether or not his prophecy materializes, it adds a notable voice to the national discourse, reflecting the mixed sentiments among Ghanaians as they prepare for the next electoral cycle.
