Pastor banished from Bechem over fake prophesy


The head pastor of Devine Faith Prayer Ministry, Prophet Emmanuel Osei, has been banished from Bechem in the Brong Ahafo region for creating fear and panic in the town.

Prophet Emmanuel Osei is alleged to have littered the main junction of of the Bechem town with dead doves, crows and vultures with red bands around their necks.

The unwelcome spectacle that greeted the town folks last Wednesday also saw the birds wearing cowries and rings on their legs just to ensure Prophet Osei’s prophecy that witches were going to have a meeting at Bechem comes to pass.

Berimaba Yusif Abubakari, a reporter of local radio station, After 2 FM, who broke the news on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem said Prophet Osei had said on another radio station before the bizarre incident that he would kill the witches who would come in the form of birds.

As result of that prophecy and the subsequent littering of the town with those birds, the youth in the area petitioned the chief to banish the pastor for bringing the name of the town into disrepute.

As an immediate measure, the Chief of Nana Ofosu Gyeabour Akoto II says they have banished the so called prophet.

In an interview on Adom FM’s morning show, Dwaso Nsem on Friday, the chief said the prophet admitted to killing to birds just to prove that he is indeed a man of God.

He said the prophet was also fined to pay 12 goats, some amount of money and one box of schnapps to pacify the gods.

The chief said he had dispatched some youth to the church of the prophet to ensure that he left the town as directed.

But in a rebuttal, Prophet Emmanuel Osei, has denied all the allegations leveled against him.

He said the accusation was a grand scheme by a rival pastor who has connived with his detractors to destroy him.

“I’m not surprised they are blaming me for this incident. It is true I prophesied about the incident but I did not put the birds there.  I know one pastor in this town is behind this”, he alleged.

The Devine Faith Prayer Ministry pastor said though he managed to pay GH₵400 of the fine, it does not mean he has accepted the blame.

“I did that out of respect for the chief of Bechem but for what they have done, anyone who spends that money will be cursed”, he fumed.

Prophet Osei said he has moved to Kumasi to prevent the youth from lynching him for a crime he has not committed.

“The youth stormed my church, assaulted by pastors, destroyed my instrument, chairs and stole my offering.  I have moved to Kumasi to save my life”, he indicated.

Ghana Ranks 1st in World Manhood Ranking

A graph revealing the average size of a man’s erect penis from all over the world has surfaced online and Africa is topping the list. Ghanaian men have the world’s largest penises, while Nigerian ranks 5th according to the latest ranking. South African men are ranked at number 10.

Nigeria is in the top five with Gabon, Jamaica, and Haiti. Target Map published a graph showing the differing lengths of a male’s manhood size across the World and Africa, Western Africa particular, takes the top spot. Target Map created the colour-coded interactive infographic which shows the different sizes of men’s manhood depending on where they’re from.

Easter celebrations: 3 drown at Tawala beach on Good Friday

Three persons are reported dead after they drowned at the Tawala Beach at La in Accra. The deceased were part of a youth fellowship team of fifteen people who went to the beach to pray on Good Friday. The incident occurred after some of the team members decided to swim after their prayer session. In an attempt to save their drowning friend, the two others also drowned. Speaking to Citi News, a brother of one of the deceased, Kwame Mac-Joseph, said the absence of lifeguards at the Tawala beach is to blame for the deaths. “In the course of the swimming, one person was drowning and the next person wanted to help and he got drowned. The third person who also wanted to help also got drowned.” He said some of the onlookers were unwilling to help because they were not experienced enough in swimming, and were also terrified. “There was no rescue team or indigenous people readily available to help. The onlookers were looking at this three gentlemen drowning.” “We just received a call ...
