Bishop Ebenezer Adarkwa Yiadom, also known as Opambuor, has responded to recent criticisms from detractors, including lawyer Maurice Ampaw, regarding the accuracy of some political prophecies he made last month.
Opambuor had predicted that former President John Dramani Mahama would defeat Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia in the 2024 elections.
Ampaw, a known supporter of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), publicly disagreed with Opambuor last week, accusing him of making false prophecies along with other popular preachers such as Prophet Kofi Oduor, Kumchacha, and Badu Kobi.
In response to Ampaw’s allegations during a church service over the weekend, Opambuor questioned the credibility of Ampaw and those who opposed him.
“Is the person okay? Is he senseless? What nonsense is this? I crack jokes during my service so that people can have relief from the stress of this life. I am done doing that; they are going to see real fire from henceforth. Tell them,” he charged.
Addressing the vice president, who is the NPP flagbearer, he added: “Bawumia should speak to his people attacking me; otherwise, the outcome of the election will be even graver for his party. Which man of God can deny what God has revealed?
“Bawumia, as a Muslim with the Islamic spirit, should ask leading clerics whether I am of God or not. No pastor, fetish priest, lawyer or doctor can change the prophecy God has given through me,” he emphasized.
