Ghanaian gospel singer and man of God, Sonnie Badu, lashed out at fellow prophets who primarily prophesy ‘doom’ on the lives of prominent people.
Badu said the practice, which has become frequent in Ghana in recent years, is not indicative of power as most Ghanaian prophets project to the public.
The U.K.-based singer took to his Instagram page to take aim at prophets of doom who have predicted death for the Vice President, Professor Jane Naana Opoku Agyemang, following her recent illness.
“Dear major and minor prophets, there is something called the word of wisdom, which simply means that whatever you see, you should speak with wisdom,” said Badu. “Prophesying someone’s death does not make you powerful; rather, it makes you a prophet of doom,”
The singer added that God reveals to redeem, opining that prophets who simply reveal for their own purposes, with no redemption, are not of God.
He concluded his post by saying words of prayers for the Vice President, wishing for her speedy recovery.
In recent years, prophets who mainly subsist on making ‘doom’ prophecies against prominent Ghanaians have taken over the landscape.
These prophets generally make these prophecies so if anything vaguely resembling their claim later happens, they share videos taking ‘credit’ for being prescient.
Ghana’s Vice President, Professor Opoku-Agyemang, was recently flown abroad to seek medical treatment for a ‘sudden illness’ that the NPP’s Okatakyie Afrifa alleges to be a stroke. Following her illness, some Ghanaian prophets have come out to take credit, claiming they prophesied the incident ahead of time.
