The Ghana Pentecostal and Charismatic Council (GPCC) is set to deliberate on a recent government directive requiring all prophecies of national significance to be submitted to the presidency for review.
Speaking on Morning Starr with Naa Dedei Tettey on Tuesday, August 12, GPCC General Secretary said the Council had received the letter but was yet to take an official position.
“We are yet to meet, thus, as the Ghana Pentecostal and Charismatic Council, the National Executive Council, is yet to meet on it because that letter we got yesterday. And so in terms of our position on it, we’ve not met. “
“So a meeting will be convened, hopefully this week, to reflect on it and then put out our official response. That is what I will do for now,” he explained.
He, however, acknowledged that the directive may have been prompted by a surge of unguarded prophecies about public officials circulating on social media.
“One can understand where the, I mean, the intention with which the letter is being written, because we have too many unguarded statements in the public domain, containing prophecies and revelations about distinguished public officers and government officials. And I think it is not right, that is not right and that is what I think this letter is intended to cure,” he stated.
The directive follows a formal statement issued on August 10, 2025, by Mr. Afriyie Ankrah on behalf of President John Dramani Mahama, urging all religious leaders to ensure that any prophecy or spiritual message of national importance is reported to his office.
The directive is said to promote responsibility, discernment, and stewardship over the nation’s destiny.
The move has drawn mixed reactions from the public, with some questioning the role of religious affairs in governance.
