The National Chief Imam's office strongly disagrees with a claim made by Rev. Isaac Owusu Bempah, the head pastor of the Glorious Word Power Ministries International, that he looks to him for spiritual protection.

He contends that the allegations are false and ought to be utterly disregarded by all sincere Ghanaians.

In a press release on Wednesday, January 4, the office said the Chief Imam does not seek spiritual protection from “charlatans on the pulpit.”

Therefore, it has requested assistance from the Christian community and the Inspector-General of Police (IGP) to prevent Reverend Owusu Bempah from issuing any more contentious and erroneous prophecies regarding His Eminence, Shiekh Osman Nuhu Sharabutu.

“We wish to state that all the claims of Rev. Isaac Owusu Bempah contain no iota of truth, but represent the figment of his own imagination.

“Undoubtedly, His Eminence is a champion of interfaith harmony and peaceful co-existence. But he does not seek protection and prosperity from charlatans on the pulpit.”

“Conclusively, we stand – at all times – for interfaith solidarity and national unity, as we contribute our quota to the building of a prosperous democratic state of diverse religious communities.

According to reports, Rev. Owusu Bempah on December 31, 2022, during his church's watch night session stated that the National Chief Imam turns to him for spiritual protection.
