Honestly the creation of this so-called office of prophecy and ecumenical whatever is the most thoughtless action by this government. It was clearly a knee jerk reaction to the tragic death of the gallant eight and it's accompanying charlatanic prophecies. It's not too late to reverse it JM.
Reverse it quick quick quick before we come harder at you.

FRANKIE, isn't that part of the "Reset agenda"? John Mahama is the only person who will entertain that kind of stupidity because he lacks critical thinking.

For this office of Prophecy becomes very effective there is a need of appointing a Minister of God who can directly go to God to ask if he is aware of certain prophecies.

How would the Catholic Church have dealt with these charlatans and their prophecies? Turkson should try to prophesy in Rome about the Pope and see what will happen.

YOU SEE, NDC THRIVES ON PROPAGANDA AND PLAYING ON THE INTELLIGENCE OF THEIR GULLIBLE FOLLOWERS. WHAT NDC IS TRYING TO DO IS BRING ALL THESE CHARLATANS UNDER ONE UMBRELLA, PUT THEM ON PAY ROLL AND URGE THEM TO DECEIVE THE MASSES. THEY DO THE SAME THING TO MEDIA PERSONALITIES AND SOME MAD BLOGGERS LIKE KEVIN TAYLOR WHO WAS RECENTLY ACCORDED PRESIDENTIAL TREATMENT WHEN HE ARRIVED IN THIS COUNTRY. NDC JUST INCOMPETENT AND CORRUPT.

President Mahama, there are more important things that require your time and concentration than being bogged down with false prophecies. Ghanaians voted for you, believing that you can make a difference in their lives.
Anything short of that would tarnish your integrity and resolve to help others who need government help

Thanks Cardinal Turkson for your input on such a bizarre undertaking by the Presidency . An office in the jubilee house dedicated to the review of prophecies is absolutely nonsense. Rather those with such prophecies should consult with the Christian council at the jubilee house for any intercessions . I hope the government will listen to the wisdom of Cardinal Turkson .
Most of these pastors are scammers who have scammed their congregations to enrich themselves and now they want to extend this to the national level. Ghana is a nation with different faiths and beliefs and the government cannot nationalize prophecies. Are prophecies, premonitions and dreams interchangeable ? This calls for a national dialogue.

“Cardinal Peter Appiah Turckson”

He was president of the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace from 2009 to 2017 and the inaugural prefect of the Dicastery for the Promotion of Integral Human Development from 2017 to 2021.[2] Turkson was previously Archbishop of Cape Coast from 1992 to 2009, and was made a cardinal by Pope John Paul II in 2003. He has been viewed as papabile, a likely candidate for election to the papacy, both during the 2013 papal conclave which elected Pope Francis, as well as the 2025 papal conclave, which elected Pope Leo XIV.

The man is questioning the rationale behind that office because there is nothing like that anywhere on this planet even in the Vatican, they do not have prophetic office.

Cardinal Turkson is right — how do you even ‘monitor’ prophecies? In creating this office, President Mahama missed an opportunity for purposeful leadership. Ghana needs focus, not distractions.

Being a Cardinal mean nothing to our Christian believe , is also doesn't mean you no it all. We all know Catholics has nothing to do with prophecy nor talking about God , Catholics is an empire and has nothing to do with God. The Bible make it clear that ,we believers should be sober and proved everything to see if all what some Christian are doing come from him , because not all churches are practicing and followed our Lord Jesus christ teaching and the same as prophecy. Why all this so called prophecy can only see things from the rich people and not for the poor, i ask you. Now mr Cardinal if you are truthful believer you, could've see that the Christians believes wasn't in the prophecy time but, rather by God grace. I'm even wasting my time for nothing. They don't read their Bible.

It is only God who can determine if a prophecy or premonition is true or false or if it will happen. Spiritual matters cannot be reviewed by we mortals. It is only God. The task assigned to this office is an impossible task. All we can do as a nation is to pray fervently against calamities as what happened on August 6. Prayer, prayer, and thanks giving is what we should do. Finish.

Very easily done. Just as it takes fire to fight fire, it also takes political liars to filter religious lies flowing out of the mouths of demented quack prophets. All prophets are quacks and tithe-fleecing religious lies with a penchant for spitting out lies packaged as prophecies. President Mahama's government should be ashamed of itself for wasting Ghana tax payers' money at Jubilee House to filter quack prophecies by quack prophets. A President is free to have their strong religious beliefs, but no President should impose their religious bullshit on the people of Ghana. Ghanaians refused to swallow President Akufo-Addo's sham national cathedral deception, and they're not about to allow themselves to be forced President Mahama's ridiculous and pathetically absurd quack prophesies filtering nonsense.
