The Founder and Leader of the Anointed Palace Chapel (APC), Rev. Obofour, also known as Prophet Asanteman Bofour, has hit hard at the leaders of Ghana over happenings in the country, during his sermon on Sunday, September 21, 2024.
The pastor, who looked very enraged, could not hold back his frustration over what he described as the failures of the Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo government.
He asserted that the only reason the government would be looking on as illegal small-scale mining (galamsey) takes over Ghana, destroying the country’s water bodies and endangering the lives of the citizenry, is that witchcraft has taken over the nation.
He said that it is only witches and wizards who would steal the country’s resources meant for the construction of hospitals to care for the poor, because they have no compassion.
“We have MPs who are witches, we have presidents who are witches. I’m telling you this. We have MPs who are witches, we have teachers who are witches, we have a DCE who is a witch, and for him, he is also a fool in addition. If not, why would politicians be stealing money and saving it abroad while students are being killed when they try crossing rivers because there are no bridges?
“Because they are witches, they don’t have empathy. They are the same as demons. If not, people would not be using funds meant for the construction of toilet facilities to buy plane tickets for their girlfriends and their communicator would come and defend this, saying other governments have been doing the same,” he said in Twi.
He added, “Witchcraft has taken over the nation. We are all sitting and watching as our water bodies are being destroyed… If not for witchcraft, why would people be given money to fix our hospitals but you go to Korle-Bu and see nursing mothers sleeping on the floor? If you aren’t a witch or foolish, why would you sit down and allow a country like Ghana to be without a standard stadium for matches? If not for witchcraft, how can you sit and allow a stadium to deplete to the level where it cannot be used? How can you look on while our stadiums go to waste?”
The pastor said that he does not fear any action that would be taken against him for the statements he is making.
He went on to curse any person who attempts to arrest or attack him for his criticisms of the government.
