Bawumia’s campaign team 'fires' back at Rev Owusu-Bempah

The National Public Relations Director for the National Bawumia Movement for 2024, Abocipala Adongo Thomas, says the Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, will become the next President of Ghana, irrespective of what anyone does to discourage him.

The PRO was reacting to a viral video of the Founder and Leader of the Glorious Word Power Ministries International, Reverend Isaac Owusu-Bempah , in which he prophesized in 2015 that God had revealed to him that there was a hindrance to then running mate, Dr Bawumia succeeding the then candidate Nana Akufo-Addo.

Owusu Bempah in a recent video, said although God revealed that to him in 2015 that there was a hindrance to Dr. Bawumia becoming President of Ghana, the same God also showed him what to do to prevent what loomed ahead of Dr. Bawumia.

Speaking with Ekourba Gyasi Simpremu on Atinka TV's morning show, Ghana Nie, Abocipala Adongo Thomas noticed that, despite being old, the said video was now being circulated by some people, who he suspects belong to the opposition party.

He said the spreading of the video now was an indicator that Dr Bawumia, will definitely be the next president in 2024, irrespective of his religion.

"I know we have accepted him in our society, so if you know the strength of the person, nothing can hurt his image," he said.

Abocipala Adongo Thomas said, "Again, we as an independent body and followers of the NPP would want everyone to understand that we do not see anything wrong with that prophecy from Owusu Bempah in 2015."

He added, but the problem we have now is those who are circulating it today. We want them to understand that come what may, our next president, come 2024 is going to be Dr Mahamudu Bawumia."

He said, although Owusu Bempah did not mention Bawumia's name, the said video has been tagged with Bawumia's photos, therefore making people think he is the one the Pastor was referring to.

Abocipala Adongo Thomas, said the National Bawumia Movement for 2024, will campaign for Bawumia until he (Bawumia) himself comes out to say he is not interested in the presidential race.

"For now, we are independent individuals within the party who are trying to promote the good works of Bawumia. He hasn't come out yet but we will keep promoting him until presidential nominations are opened," he said.

The video that emerged captured Rev. Owusu Bempah proclaiming that God does not want a non-Christian to be the leader of the country and suggested in the said video clip that NPP could lose an election if a certain vice who is a non-Christian is made the flagbearer.

But barely a day after the video went viral, the preacher says it's an old video and should be disregarded Founder of Glorious Word and Power Ministries, Rev. Isaac Owusu Bempah has in a radio interview on Okay 101.7 FM yesterday, asked the general public to treat with contempt a prophetic video about Dr. Bawumia from him in 2015.

Over the weekend, a video of the renowned man of God declaring the NPP could lose the elections should a non-Christian lead the party went viral.

Dr Bawumia is considered by most political pundits as the key to breaking the 8-year cycle.

He is the only prominent non-Christian in the elephant fraternity being widely tipped to succeed President Akufo-Addo as the NPP's presidential candidate. Per the contents of the video, the head pastor of the Glorious Word and Power Ministry believes the NPP will be booted out of the Jubilee House with Vice President Dr. Bawumia as its flagbearer.

But clarifying the prophetic today, Prophet Owusu Bempah, entreated the general public to disregard the said video which is of no material effect now.

He questioned the rationale behind the video being circulated six years after that prophetic word came to him if not for mischievous purposes by those who are propagating it.

"There is a 2015 prophetic video of me going viral which was about our Vice President Bawumia. It was in 2015 that God through me gave that prophecy....The video in circulation is of no effect today because whatever God revealed to me has been dealt with."

"One thing is, that prophetic word was in 2015, the NPP came to power in 2016. We are in 2021, how many years? Six years. Why is it this time that some people use that part of the message and spreading it?" he queried.

He pointed out that though God revealed what he saw to him, the same God used him to avert whatever ill-luck that he saw about the then running mate Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.

"Whatever hindrance that would have militated against the President and the Vice President was dealt with through prayers and God listened, hence the victory of the NPP in the 2016 elections..."

"God used me to also address what would have hindered Vice President Bawumia from becoming president just like He used me to intercede for Nana Akufo-Addo back in 2015," the Reverend Minister further told Kwame Nkrumah. "And we worked on that of Bawumia.

Brethren, I am saying that we worked on that one as well," Prophet Owusu Bempah reiterated adding that God reveals to redeem.
