Renowned Ghanaian UK-based gospel singer, Sonnie Badu, has called out pastors who gain attention by prophesying the deaths of prominent individuals, stating that such declarations do not indicate spiritual power.

In recent years, Ghana has witnessed an increase in so-called “doom prophecies,” with several self-proclaimed prophets predicting tragic events, often targeting influential figures.

However, Sonnie Badu believes this trend is misguided and serves only to create fear rather than edify the people.

His comments come in response to a recent prophecy about the supposed impending death of Ghana’s Vice President, Professor Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang.

Addressing the issue, he urged pastors to exercise wisdom when delivering prophecies.

“Dear major and minor prophets, there is something called the word of wisdom, which simply means that whatever you see, you should speak with wisdom,” Badu stated.

“Prophesying someone’s death does not make you powerful; rather, it makes you a prophet of doom.”

Badu’s remarks have sparked discussions online, with many agreeing that the growing culture of fear-driven prophecies is damaging.

He emphasized that true spiritual leadership should bring hope and guidance rather than panic and distress.

As debates continue over the role of prophecies in Ghanaian society, Sonnie Badu’s message serves as a call for responsible and ethical prophetic ministry.

Ghanaian rapper-turned-singer, King Paluta, has sparked online discussions following a cryptic post about his involvement in the 2024 political campaign of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the former Vice President and New Patriotic Party (NPP) Presidential Candidate.

In a tweet on his official X (formerly Twitter) handle, the Aseda hitmaker suggested that some Ghanaians are still upset over the money he allegedly received from Dr. Bawumia during the election campaign.

“The money I took from Baweezy dier, epain boys ooo,” he tweeted, using a playful reference to Dr. Bawumia’s nickname, “Baweezy.”

King Paluta was actively involved in the NPP’s campaign, with his songs frequently played at political rallies.

However, it appears his association with the party has caused lingering resentment among some fans, especially as the TGMA Artiste of the Year race approaches.

Many online users believe his political affiliations might affect his chances of winning the coveted award, as some critics continue to express disappointment in his decision to align with a political figure.

Despite the backlash, King Paluta remains unfazed, using humor to address the controversy. Whether this will impact his career or award prospects remains to be seen.

Renowned Ghanaian actor Agya Koo has responded to critics who claim he only recently began advocating for better roads.

The backlash follows a viral video of the actor lamenting the deplorable state of roads in the country.

Many social media users accused Agya Koo of selective activism, arguing that he remained silent on the issue when his preferred political party was in power.

Some critics suggested that his recent outspokenness was politically motivated, urging him to remain silent.

I recently witnessed hazardous ⚠️ road conditions that require urgent 🚨 attention. I respectfully request that the relevant authorities take necessary measures to prevent accidents and ensure public safety 🙏 #agyakoo #tetemmofraband https://t.co/OIKWeXkHG5 pic.twitter.com/KmnK0vNG9s

However, in a social media post, Agya Koo refuted these claims, stating that he has been vocal about road infrastructure issues for years, regardless of which government was in power.

To support his claim, he shared a past video of himself addressing the issue and calling on authorities to take action.

“I understand that some of you might think I’m hypocritical for speaking out now, but I want to remind you that I’ve been advocating for better roads. I spoke about this issue on Angel FM during Nana Akufo-Addo’s government. I’m not just starting to care about this issue; I’ve been passionate about it for a long time. So, please 🙏 Abeg. Let us all stand for the truth,” he wrote.

His response has sparked further debate online, with some supporters commending his consistency, while others remain skeptical of his stance.
