A 2024 independent parliamentary candidate for the Nkoranza Constituency, Charles Owusu, has stated that the defeat suffered by the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the December 7 polls was well deserved.
Speaking on Peace FM's Kokrokoo Morning Show, Charles Owusu, a personal assistant to the late General Secretary of the NPP, Sir John, said a victory by the outgone ruling party would have signified the nonexistence of God. "For the first time in the history of Ghana, we received a letter from the IGP (Inspector General of Police), instructing that no prophecy should be issued in Ghana….
If the NPP had not been lost, then the God that we serve would not have existed. "On the 31st, when we were having our watch night service, we had police officers surrounding churches to intimidate prophets just to instil fear in them and stop them from prophesying," he stated.
Charles Owusu, who doubles as a junior pastor to the founder and leader of Glorious Word Power Ministry, Reverend Isaac Owusu Bempah, also lamented the persecution suffered by his head pastor under the erstwhile government through the police.
