The Presidential Envoy on Interfaith and Ecumenical Relations, Elvis Afriyie Ankrah, has revealed that over 200 prophecies have been submitted to his office since a\u00a0directive was issued<\/a>, yet only a small fraction warrant further consideration.<\/p>\n

In the wake of the August 6 helicopter crash that claimed eight lives, Mr Afriyie Ankrah clarified that his office is not solely dedicated to processing prophecies. Its broader mandate includes collaboration with international and local faith bodies, including ECOWAS, the African Union, the United Nations, and religious groups across Ghana.<\/p>\n

According to the envoy, the majority of the submissions following the tragedy are unsubstantial. \u201cBy and large, 70\u201380% is of no substance,\u201d he said. Among the rest, only 2\u20135% may merit deeper investigation.<\/p>\n

The directive prompting these submissions was issued on August 10 and encouraged church leaders to formally channel prophecies concerning national security, political leadership, or public stability to the envoy\u2019s office for urgent review. The aim was to differentiate genuine spiritual insight from fear-inducing speculation.<\/p>\n

Explaining the process, Mr Afriyie Ankrah emphasised that sensitive prophecies with potential security implications must be privately communicated, not shared publicly, for responsible handling. The office has since established a WhatsApp platform and an email address for these submissions.<\/p>\n

He added that the Bible itself encourages the testing of prophecies. “Testing means there is room for review \u2026 There\u2019s a lot that is completely bogus \u2026 But there may be a few that have some substance,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n

Responding to misconceptions, the envoy stated that the office, established two weeks prior, isn’t a \u201ccollector of prophecies\u201d as some erroneous reports suggested. \u201cThat\u2019s why you saw all those memes,\u201d he admitted, reiterating the office\u2019s purpose in fostering unity and harmony among religious communities.<\/p>\n

Highlighting religion\u2019s role in Ghana\u2019s social fabric, he pointed out that over 90% of the population belongs to a faith community, making interfaith engagement a vital component of governance and social cohesion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
