Elvis Afriyie Ankrah, the Presidential Envoy for Inter-Faith and Ecumenical Relations, has called on Ghanaian spiritual leaders to cease prophecies centred on death and doom and instead speak about issues that would transform the nation.

Afriyie Ankrah, who recently directed all prophets to submit their prophecies regarding high-profile government officials and the state to his office for scrutiny, clarified that death prophecies are no longer welcome.

He stressed that the focus should now be on positive prophecies that inspire development and national progress.

'70 to 80% of prophecies my office has received lack substance' - Elvis Afriyie-Ankrah

According to him, almost every submission to his office revolves around death, doom or disaster, and he has had enough.

Speaking in an interview, excerpts of which were shared on social media by GHOne News, he said, "I'm praying for the day our prophets and seers will have visions of a Ghana that is transformed and prosperous.

"If you have any prophecy about Ghana becoming like Malaysia, Singapore, or South Korea, then come see me.

"Enough of your death prophecies. My office isn't for receiving prophecies."

He urged prophets to focus on revelations that inspire growth, innovation and national progress rather than those that instill fear and panic among citizens.
