The General Overseer of Alabaster International Ministries, Prophet Kofi Oduro, has lambasted the Ghana Registered Nurses and Midwives Association (GRNMA) over the brouhaha surrounding an alleged attack on a Ridge Hospital nurse by social media activist, Raphael Saint Williams.
Speaking to his congregants on Sunday, August 31, 2025, Prophet Oduro lambasted the nurses for supposedly trying to put a spin on the incident.
He argued that viral videos of the incident show that no nurse was attacked, but the leadership of the GRNMA has gone on national television to spew lies.
Ridge Hospital Assault: Committee report contradicts nurse's claims
“These registered nurses who could be someone’s mother or someone’s father, appear on TV to say stupid things to taint the image of all nurses. We all saw what happened in the videos circulating, and yet a supposed professional comes on TV to tell stupid lies.
“Madam nurse, will you be able to attend a crusade? Will you be able to go for communion this Sunday? God will judge you! If not for the fact that Ghana is a stupid nation, all of you would have been sacked by now,” he said.
The prophet also jabbed the GRNMA General Secretary, Dr David Tenkorang-Twum, for threatening media personnel.

He expressed shock that a nurse could actually threaten patients who would be accessing their facilities for medical care.
“How can a registered nurse threaten somebody, saying ‘you will come and meet us at the hospital?’ What kind of nonsense is that? You are threatening a potential patient even before they come to your hospital. Are you waiting to kill someone at your medical facility? Stupid people with no sense,” he fumed.
Prophet Oduro signaled that he has lost trust in public health facilities in the country.
“As I stand here, I have no trust in government hospitals. I have told my wife, ‘Don’t take me to Korle Bu, don’t take me to 37, if there is an emergency’,” he said.
