Ghanaians drag Prophet Fire Oja after failed Black Stars prophecy

A 2024 video of Prophet Fire Oja’s prophecy that the Black Stars won’t qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup has resurfaced and has gone viral on various social media platforms.

In the viral video sighted by GhanaWeb Sports, Prophet Fire Oja, the founder of the Holiness of Christ Zion Ministry, during the 31st watch night service in December 2024 said Ghana’s World Cup qualifying campaign in 2025 would end in failure.

Prophet Fire Oja in the video said the failure of not qualifying for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco will follow the Black Stars in the World Cup qualifying campaign because Ghana will not qualify for both tournaments.

However, the prophecy has now sparked massive reactions on various social media platforms, with many football fans mocking the prediction and celebrating the team’s achievement.

Some Ghanaians shared the video of Prophet Fire Oja’s prophecy alongside footage of jubilant Ghanaian supporters, while others called for accountability among pastors who make inaccurate public prophecies.
