How Mahama responded to ‘failed’ election prophecies of Rev. Kusi Boateng, others

During a visit to the Ebenezer Miracle Worship Centre in Kumasi, President John Dramani Mahama reacted to prophecies by some clergymen who had predicted his loss in the 2024 elections.

In a video making waves on social media, Mahama, speaking at the church led by popular evangelist Rev. Ebenezer Adarkwa Yiadom, also known as Opambour on January 19, 2025, recalled the numerous prophecies made before the elections and the reactions of those who had predicted his loss.

“I remember before the elections, a lot of people said many things, gave a lot of prophecies, but after the elections, when they saw that it did not go the way they wanted, they said God made the opposite occur.

“What I know about God, what he wants to happen is what will happen, irrespective of your wishes,” Mahama stated.

His remarks were perceived as a response to Rev. Kusi Boateng, Founder of Power Chapel Worldwide, who had predicted Mahama’s defeat.

Rev. Boateng had confidently prophesied a victory for Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia but later expressed his surprise at Mahama’s overwhelming win.

Reflecting on his ‘failed prophecy’ during a sermon, Rev. Boateng admitted, “The same way God has been speaking to me over the years, He spoke to me, but the opposite occurred. The Bible says let God be true and let all men be liars. I saw right, I heard right, but the opposite has occurred. There is nothing I can do.”

Mahama, who was a special guest of honour at the Ebenezer Miracle Worship Centre, visited the church as part of his current visit to Kumasi as he paid a courtesy call on Otumfuo Osei Tutu II at the Manhyia Palace in Kumasi.

This visit is part of Mahama’s efforts to engage with traditional rulers to resolve the long-standing Bawku Conflict.
