The founder and leader of Glorious Word Power Ministries, Reverend Isaac Owusu-Bempah, has criticized certain high-ranking members of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), branding them as ungrateful individuals.

Reverend Owusu-Bempah, known for his claims of prophetic abilities in election predictions and support, expressed disappointment that some NPP members, including those he has assisted spiritually, have failed to show appreciation.

In an interview with Kwame Nkrumah Tikese of Okay FM, he cited NPP parliamentary candidate for Dome Kwabenya, Mike Oquaye Jnr, as an example of someone who sought his spiritual guidance but did not acknowledge it afterward.

“Mike Oquaye Jnr came to me and said he was struggling to win the Dome-Kwabenya seat, so I gave him directions… he (Mike Oquaye Jnr) confirmed that he and his team chanced on a scene of some big men performing rituals at a particular place which I had mentioned to him.

“I told him to perform the rituals at the same place and he won the elections. He called and said he had won the elections and that he was going to come and visit. As we speak, I haven’t heard from him. So we have some politicians who are ungrateful.”

He also mentioned Member of Parliament for Ablekuma West and Minister for Communications and Digitalisation, Ursula Owusu-Ekuful, as another individual who has neglected to recognize his contributions to her political journey.

“Madam Ursula Owusu is also another person; she is a very ungrateful woman. Some time ago, this woman used to come to me every time. When the election came, I went to her constituency to spend over two hours there. After their victory, I have never heard from her again,” he said.

Reverend Bempah expressed disappointment in the NPP’s lack of gratitude, noting that he had considered withdrawing his spiritual support for the party if not for the intervention of senior members such as Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia and former Member of Parliament for Tema West, Irene Naa Torshie Addo-Lartey.

He recalled the sacrifices he made for the party, including risking the sanctity of his church by vowing that his chapel be destroyed if the NPP lost the 2016 general elections.

“Some journalists in this country can attest to how I suffered for the party and how God used me to deliver victory for the party,” he stated while recalling how he put his church on the line by asking that his chapel be burnt if the NPP were to lose the 2016 general elections.
