The Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin has called on Ghanaians to take genuine prophecies seriously, warning against dismissing spiritual warnings and messages from credible men of God.
Speaking while commiserating with the family of the late former Acting Deputy National Security Coordinator, Alhaji Muniru Limuna Mohammed, who was buried alongside the former Minister for Environment, Science, Technology, and Innovation, Dr. Ibrahim Murtala Muhammed, the Speaker stressed that spiritual insights from trusted religious leaders should not be taken lightly.
His remarks come in the wake of a new directive from the Presidency’s Interfaith and Ecumenical Relations Office, requiring religious leaders to submit prophecies of national significance for official review.
In a letter issued on Sunday, August 10, Presidential Envoy Elvis Afriyie Ankrah urged clergy to present any prophecy or spiritual insight relating to high-profile political leaders, governance, national security, or public stability for urgent assessment.
The Speaker reminded mourners that, despite the grief of the moment, “we should not forget about the power of the Almighty God,” adding that a culture of discernment and respect for credible spiritual counsel could help the nation avert future tragedies.
The helicopter crash on Wednesday, August 6, claimed the lives of Dr. Edward Omane Boamah, Minister for Defence, and Dr. Ibrahim Murtala Muhammed, Minister for Environment, Science, Technology, and Innovation.
Others confirmed dead were Muniru Mohammed, Acting Deputy National Security Coordinator; Samuel Aboagye, former parliamentary candidate; and Samuel Sarpong, Vice Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
Earlier, the Ghana Armed Forces reported that the Z-9 helicopter, carrying three crew members and five passengers, had gone “off the radar.”
The aircraft departed Accra at 09:12 local time (GMT) and was heading to Obuasi for an anti-illegal mining event. Its disappearance triggered an immediate search-and-rescue operation, which later confirmed that all eight people aboard had died.
