In light of the demise of gospel musician Kofi Owusu Dua Anto, popularly known as KODA, an interesting development has surfaced on social media.
Fans, particularly the Ghanaian gospel music fraternity have since been thrown into a state of shock and grief following KODA’s death which occurred on Sunday, April 21, 2024.
Netizens have been confused with some wondering what might have caused the death of the once gallant ‘gospel soldier’.
However, amidst the mourning, a video capturing the moment a powerful man of God predicted KODA’s death has gone viral.
One Rev. Richard Boateng of the E-Glory Ministries Chapel was seen prophesying about the death of KODA.
In the pastor’s proclamation that was made in February this year, he said to have seen in the spiritual realms that someone had attacked KODA with an arrow.
He also said it was revealed to him that the entire Takoradi township was thrown into mourning.
“Takoradi is about to be hit with a very sad news. I have seen the plot to pull down one of the stars that have emerged from this city. Let’s pray for this person. We need to pray for this young man. He is a musician called KODA or something like that.
"I have seen a gathering here in Takoradi, I see a lot of people trooping into Takoradi not to celebrate but to mourn him. Let’s pray and shift this dark cloud away from him.
“The angel of God revealed to me that someone has shot an arrow at him and it is forming on his heart. This is creating problems for him. If care is not taken one of the most important organs of his body will be distorted.
"There won’t be good news. I saw sadness written on people’s faces. I saw disappointment,” the pastor earlier declared.
The E-Glory chapel general overseer and his congregation later prayed for divine intervention to avert the prophecy.

Video of late KODA speaking about his health resurfaces
It appears that KODA was not someone who shied away from publicly discussing his health as he previously spoke extensively about suffering from a condition known as G6PD deficiency.
In a video shared by GHPage, he spoke about how he had been given the wrong medication at an unnamed Takoradi-based hospital during one episode that he suffered, stressing how that particular incident affected his health.
"I started developing some funny, funny symptoms here and there over time and I noticed something was not right. So, I remember one day being bold enough to google the medication I was given and I noticed that one major element that I was asked to take was a Sulphur-based medication and immediately I told myself that I had a medical condition called G6PD.
"I know for sure that Sulphur is one of the things that I am not supposed to take. Why, the people, they want kill me or what? Because I had taken the medication for over 6 close to 8 months," he stated.
