Prophet Ogyaba, popularly known as Prophet Fire Oja, founder of the Holiness of Christ Zion Ministry, has urged the government to give prophets cars and fuel for them to be able to convey their prophecies.
According to Prophet Fire Oja, they will follow the government’s new directive on prophecies for review if the State provides them with a car and fuel.
Speaking in an interview, Prophet Fire Oja stated, “We will follow the directives, and we are still going to say it. They must add a car and transportation to it. Probably it is not everyone will get money to board a car to deliver the message.
I am begging the leaders of Ghana, the directives that they have put out, we respect them and we will continue to pray for them and listen to them, but my only request is that if the prophecy comes and we are to bring them, we are pleading with them to help us with fuel and a car”.
Prophet Fire Oja added, “For me, I do not have a car, so when it comes, I will suffer”.
His comments come on the back of Elvis Afriyie Ankrah, the Presidential Envoy for Interfaith and Ecumenical Relations earlier statement on Sunday, August 10, calling on all prophets, pastors, men and women of God in the Republic of Ghana to submit any prophecy or spiritual insight of a national nature for urgent review and appropriate escalation.
The statement read, “On behalf of the President of the Republic of Ghana, His Excellency John Dramani Mahama, and the Office of the Presidential Envoy, I extend heartfelt appreciation to you and your various denominations for your unwavering spiritual support, intercessory prayers, and sustained leadership in promoting peace, moral integrity, and national unity. Your role in Ghana’s spiritual and civic life remains indispensable”.
“As part of strengthening national coordination on spiritual matters, especially in these times of uncertainty and complexity, we kindly encourage you to inform all Prophets, Men and Women of God under your oversight that any prophecy or spiritual insight of a national nature, especially those with implications for high-profile political leaders, governance, national security, or public stability should be formally relayed to the Office of the Presidential Envoy for urgent review and appropriate escalation. This is in the spirit of responsibility, discernment, and stewardship over the nation’s destiny.”
Elvis Afriyie Ankrah’s statement added, “The President of the Republic, His Excellency John Dramani Mahama; the Government and all State institutions; the bereaved families and the entire nation of Ghana.”
“May the Lord comfort the afflicted, guide our leaders, and continue to preserve our beloved country. We look forward to continued partnership and shared spiritual responsibility as we work together for the peace and prosperity of Ghana.”
Elvis Afriyie Ankrah’s directive comes after the tragic helicopter crash, which claimed the lives of 8 high-profile personalities, with many prophets claiming to have received insight before the crash.
Also, Elvis Afriyie Ankrah, the Presidential Envoy for Interfaith and Ecumenical Relations, has clarified that Prophets who defy the prophecy directive will be judged by society.
According to Elvis Afryie Ankrah, there is nothing like legal sanctions, but public opinion will be against them if they disobey the directive, which he notes as a powerful tool for accountability.
Speaking on Citi Eyewitness News on Monday, August 11, Elvis Afriyie Ankrah stated, “There is nothing like an arrest when they defy the directive, but society will judge them if they don’t obey.
Meanwhile, Most Rev. Joseph Osei Bonsu, a former President of the Ghana Catholic Bishops’ Conference and Bishop Emeritus of the Konongo-Mampong Catholic Diocese, has urged Ghanaian prophets to learn and stop prophesying doom and gloom.
Bishop Osei Bonsu noted that most Ghanaian Prophets focus on death or disaster.
Speaking to Citi News on Monday, August 11, 2025, Most Rev Osei Bonsu stated, “If God has revealed something to you, find the right way to go about it. My concern is that these days, most prophecies focus on death or disaster.
In the Old Testament, prophets were sent to preach God’s word and guide people to do what is right — they did not constantly prophesy doom and gloom. Our prophets should learn from that,” he said.
