NDC behind attack on my church – Rev Owusu Bempah
The founder of the Glorious Word and Power Ministries International, Rev. Isaac Owusu Bempah has accused the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) of being behind Wednesday's attack on his church.
According to him, the party is hiding behind his prophecy about the imminent death of the National Chief Imam, Sheik Nuhu Sharabutu, to attack him and his church.

He also praised the Chief Imam for calling the attackers to order, saying knowing the Islamic leader as a man of peace, he has cemented his trust in him as a reliable statesman on whom the nation can depend.
He accused the NDC of being against him because he prophesied the defeat of the party in the 2016 general elections.
Speaking on Kofi TV in Accra on Friday, he said the NDC will again lose the 2020, stressing that there is no way the party will come to power if ex-President John Mahama is its flagbearer.
He added that there are people in the NDC who have threatened to kill him because he always prophesies doom about the party.
Background
Some irate youth on Wednesday attacked the Odorkor branch of the Glorious Word and Power Ministries International in Accra over prophecies by its Founder, Rev. Isaac Owusu Bempah that some Ghanaian leaders and statesmen, including the Chief Imam, could die this year.
Owusu Bempah had prophesied on New Year's Eve that some former Presidents and paramount chiefs would also die this year.
Some Christian leaders as well as individuals have condemned both the act of the youth and the prophecies.
Causing fear and panic Rev Owusu Bempah refuted claims that per his utterances, he was causing fear and panic, saying his prophecies are to caution Ghanaians of things yet to come and also to encourage them to pray against mishaps, and therefore called on Ghanaians to take his prophecies seriously.
