All NPP wants is for things to get worse so that they trumpet that for political gain. Sadly God does not reward evil wishes!!!
For a pastor to be leading the prayers for things to get worse in Ghana shows how Christianity has gone to the dogs. Our traditional priests only pray for the progress of society.

10m YES fund will go the same direction as GYEDA, SDA n SUBA. All these monies were given out prior to the 2012 election and were channeled to JDM presidential campaign leading to huge deficit. The result is the depreciation of the cedi from less than Ghs2 in Nov 2012 to now Ghs4 in August 2014. Inflation in Nov 2012 was 9% but 15.3% now in August 2014. The ship has sunk and the captain JDM must be changed come 2016.

GO AND PAY THE PRICE FOR YOUR FOOLISHNESS. YOU DON'T GIVE A SECOND MANDATE TO AN INCOMPETENT AND CORRUPT GOVERNMENT, NO!! NOT AT ALL, THAT IS ABOMINATION IN DEMOCRACY, VERY SUICIDAL. HAD NDC MANAGED THE ECONOMY WELL, THESE ECONOMIC PROBLEMS WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN THE SITUATION. NDC HAS PRESIDED OVER THE BIGGEST RESOURCES GHANA HAS EVER HAD. THEY HAVE ALSO CONTRACTED MORE LOANS THAN ANY OTHER GOVERNMENT IN OUR HISTORY, BUT THEY HAVE NOTHING TO SHOW FOR THIS. GHANAIANS SHOULD HAVE ENJOYED SOME ECONOMIC PROGRESS AT THIS TIME IN OUR HISTORY. THE ECONOMY IS COLLAPSING BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT IS SO CORRUPT. TO RESCUE THE SITUATION, THE POOR IS NOW BEING FORCED TO PAY. THIS IS INJUSTICE. THIS IS NOT THE GHANA KUFFOUR HANDED OVER TO NDC, HE EVEN ADDED FRESH CRUDE OIL WELLS. NPP TRANFORMED GHANA TO A MIDDLE INCOME ECONOMY WITH LIMITED RESOURCES BUT GOOD POLICIES. NDC IS WOEFULLY REVERSING THESE NPP ACHIEVEMENTS. GHANA'S CURRENT SITUATION IS VERY DISTURBING. WHEN THE HISTORY IS TOLD, IT WILL BE SAID THAT GHANAIANS WERE OFFERED FREE SECONDARY EDUCATION, IMPROVED UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE, SOCIAL HOUSING FOR THE POOR AND AN EGALITARIAN SOCIETY BUT 50% SAID NO THANK YOU. THEY PREFERRED ECONOMIC "WOYOMISATION" , PHANTOM DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS, PHILANDERERS FOR LEADERS, MACHIAVELLIAN DISRESPECTFUL CORRUPT LOUTS AND A VISIONLESS EVIL GOVERNMENT.

Nonesense! Festival of ideas just talking about cedi falling without solutions? Common sense don't come here for anyone to know from how the cedi is trending and indecisiveness of Ghana to arrest the situation. I knew before I opened the article to hear Saviour Otabil who collects free monies, sets up businesses with free monies as charity without paying taxes would just COMPLAIN about the situation as ideas. What ideas as the festival's name suggests was discussed? Would bracing ourselves for further fall of the cedi make the cedi appreciate or reverse from falling? Are these people the thinkers or ideas gurus Ghana has? Eh....

Kweku, you have made one of the most intelligent and sensible comments here.
The man is just talking without proposing any solution to the problem. I am not sure if this man is in production type of business or in the usual buy and sell business like most Ghanaians. If he is in the production business, is he producing raw materials for manufacturing here in Ghana for export? Is he in the manufacturing business? If he is in the manufacturing business, is he using imported materials or local materials for manufacturing? Exporting is what will help bring the value of the cedi up!
Export must exceed imports if we are going to do anything to stop the free falling of the cedi. That is what this man must be preaching to the people if he loves Ghana other than just talking and collecting free money from the people.

Otabil the titanic of Ghana/Africa started with you 419 pastors aka men of God. Churches and Mosques are in no short supply in Ghana/Africa but good schools (Educational institutions) and factories are few and far between. Whilst people in the industrial nations are industriously working in factories and in labs doing research day and night you [Otabil] and cohorts assemble your able bodied members who are supposed to work for all nighters and all sorts of non-productive activities by promising them a pie in the sky. Otabil, physician heal thyself so says the Bible. Ghanaians act as if they are the only ones going through trials and tribulations. You watch too much Hollywood but it is all facade not real.
I don’t know any nation or people who prospered by praying 24/7. It is all hard work. Otabil, If you want a change be part of the change. In life things get worse before they get better. This is an axiom.
For you Johnny come lately Otabil who does not know that Ghana sunk in 1966 like Atlantis; here is a Jewish proverb for you: “I ask not for a lighter burden, but for broader shoulders.” Duke Ellington had this to say in times of adversity “A problem is a chance for you to do your best.” So the onus is on each of us to face the challenges squarely and not do the easiest finger pointing and blame game thing. For talk is cheap.
What Ghanaians/Africans must remember and put it into doing is this: There is something called luck but it looks like work and that means we have to pull up our sleeves and work hard. Period! There is no easy way to success. Sitting churches and mosques is not the solution to economic problems.
When everything seems to going against you (Ghanaians/Africans), remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it.
Otabil, instead of preaching doom and gloom all the time, plow that anger and energy into something positive. Now buzz off, you suck!

I couldn't agree with you more Nana Ansah.These "prophets of doom" make my blood boil when I read about their incessant alarmist whining about our nation's challenges.
One thing Otabil needs to learn is economics is not a perfect science.So as it usually happens,the custodians of our economy,base their projections on incorrect assumptions which dovetail into circumstances we find ourselves in today.It happens worldwide even in well advanced economies.It's not because our leader are"clueless" as has been the mantra of the opposition of late.Japan went through a whole decade of economic tumult(and still are) than what we are going through in Ghana today.The USA has not registered an economic growth rate above two percent in years.So please Otabil stick to your exploitation of your ill-informed parishioners and allow our leaders find a way to conduct our national affairs without your unnecessary alarmist calls.
Ghana would be fine.We just need to work hard to turn the tides in our favour.

Kwame, the problem with all these clergies trooping in here daily by registering their concerns and "nichodemusly" chorusing about as if they have the pride of Ghana firmly resting on their shoulders may have well fooled or convinced a lot. However, the facts on the grounds tells a very different story about their pride and where their mouth is indeed. Our collective finite-dichotomous mind could read and detect where they are coming from and the partiality ranting they often called preaching don't make a dent at the part of my neighbourhood.
Hungry is the tag I would accolade them since the cocaine trade of some of their top members have gone bust under this administration and the supposedly almighty dollars derived from this illicit trade of theirs is no more flowing into their pockets as they should hence their cry and all rounded disdain about everything under Mahama and the Akamanso at large ever since. Thence therein, under the guise of their concerned for the citizenry and Ghana for the common good, they preach the arrival of the doomsday scenario in a divine pastoral context to achieve their hiding moralities.
We have come full-squared as a nation indeed.

I am a young pastor and we all admire the grace of God upon Dr Otabil and we all wish to achieve the things God has achieved thru Otabil but i am increasingly getting worried to observe that since the NDC came to power Otabil has consistently chosen the path of a prophet of Doom and a pessimist.This is clearly a manifestation of a bias and deliberate political agenda.As pastors we all do vote but i do not know whose interest Otabil shd be doing these.When Ghana gets destroyed as pastors i do not think we are going to get people coming to our church.We shd adhere to Aps.Paul's admonition to pray for our leaders for the betterment of our beloved country Ghana.email:cmpastorchris@gmail.com

We as Ghanaians must watch our words when we are responding to men of God. Pastor Otabil in his presentation never predicted that the cedi will fall to $1/ghc10.
He sighted one scene rio a participant in the program presented relating to how he will present his case to investors to bye in even if the Cedis should fall to that level. The presenter was analyzing how he will deal with that situation and steps to to take for him to survive in such dire crises period.
You will noticed Pastor Otabil presented his case in line with the Titanic ship wrecked and the way the Leaders in the various ships tackled the gigantic problem ahead of them.
That was an excellent presentation by the man of God. Please please please let Pastor Otabil have his peace now.

You are not an economist so, stick to your gospel. God does not fix economies, people do. If that were the case, Nigeria and Ghana will be the most advanced countries in the world. And have you asked yourself why there so many crimes and corruption in these so-called Church-going Countries? Why is God not listening? Could it be that most of these pastors are fake and some of them criminals?
These nonsense of attributing every incident in Ghana to God must stop. Majority of problems in Africa and lack of development is due to misunderstanding and misuse of religion. And those Countries such as Ghana is lazy in thinking. Why would you go and pay, postrate before Mensah Otabil even, when looking for a job.
Mensah Otabil forgot why he claimed God has chosen. Now, he has decided to trade in currency and the fall in the cedi is affecting his business so has decided to bring religion into it. I say to him, he must be ashamed of himself for he is a fake pastor.

The result is the depreciation of the cedi from less than Ghs2 in Nov 2012 to now Ghs4 in August 2014. Inflation in Nov 2012 was 9% but 15.3% now in August 2014. The ship has sunk and the captain JDM must be changed come 2016.

Fault finding is very easy;why were you unable to tell what the government must do to halt further decline of the cedi?
Many Ghanaians have come to know your true very self.

I invite the Honourable/Dr/Prof/Distinguished/ Prophet Otabil to read Dr Samuel Adjei Sarfo’s article on today’s Ghanaweb news. He writes…
Unfortunately, the abandonment of scientific thinking appears to be the stock in trade of the typical Ghanaian science scholar. He is pathetically superstitious, uncreative, non-productive and non-researching. In short, he is utterly redundant in the context of the national endeavor toward the goal of scientific thinking. If in doubt, behold the proliferation of religious zealotry and so-called Sasakawa in the country. Observe the vulnerability of our leaders to spurious perorations whereby they are easily swindled by the mountebanks. Thereafter, you will conclude that scientific thinking remains absent in Ghana in spite of the investments in our science students and scholars.
The typical Ghanaian science scholar or student is a religious goon who believes and actually convinces others to believe that somebody who was crucified over two thousand years ago will descend from the skies to solve our present problems. Therefore, he commits to the lazy man’s mentality that nothing can be done to improve our lives here on earth…..that we must all wait for the apocalyptic transmogrification of our existence by a force coming forth from on high. My friend and classmate who used to be a top science student, is now the world wide General Secretary of the Pentecost Church. Another science professor in the University of Science and Technology starts his lecture with the declaration that he staunchly believes in the Bible, and that anything he teaches to the contrary is a matter of academic exercise and should be viewed as such. I also recall to my chagrin that the Vice Chancellor of the University of Cape Coast in the early nineties used to lead selected students in night-long prayer sessions, although an accomplished physics scholar of some world repute. The tacit imposition of scientific thinking on everyday life leads to a greater latitude in philosophical perspective. Indeed, there is a close proximity between science and wisdom, as exemplified by the Greek philosophers who were also scientists. So the object of science studies ought to give us the rather commonplace realization that we bear the responsibility to connect cause and effect, to be objective in our analyses, logical in our conclusions and balanced in our perspectives. Unfortunately, the records available to us do not exemplify any unique propensity on the part of the Ghanaian scientist to be an exceptional scientific thinker in order to become the driver of the national psyche.

You 2 must leave ghanaians alone to believe in the God of creation and the fact that He (God) sent His only begotten Son Jesus Christ to shed His blood and die to save humanity. What is science and what is development you guys are talking about? Do you guys know death? Death is the only thing mankind is afraid of and tries to prevent and that is why when one falls sick he/she runs to hospital. Why has science not been able to develop an antidote for death? God is the Almighty possessor of all wisdom, knowledge and power and it is true He can do all things including making the ghana cedi stronger than the dollar. Gye Nyame. God is for Ghana not for a political party.

The cedi depreciated under Rawlings, Kufuor and Mills, so Mr. Otabil, this is no news. If we sit in Ghana and import virtually everything into our country, why will the cedi not fall. Pastor, do you eat local rice at home? If the answer is yes,then bravo, but if no, then you and your congregation must start patronizing made in Ghana goods to cut down on excessive imports to strengthen our cedi. We should transform the structure of the economy and produce what we consume, else Mahamah will go and Nana Addo, your favorite will come, but the cedi will continue to fall.

Otabil is a teacher. He dwells more on logic. Beyond logic is the saving arm of God. We need serious prayer that will show us hidden ways to do things differently. We should prayer until we get results. I will pray and all ...

Pastor, this is really true. You are very discerning. God bless you for that. Let us all prepare for the worse so that when we experience it it will not give us shocks. Trust I'm The Lord and not politicians.
Tabia, pastpr otabil is a nation wrecker. He knows that such speculations can further can further lead to the fall of the cedi but he is doing it because he wants his political party, the NPP, to come to power. This is a sham ...

Dear Mr or Pastor Otabil, I am not surprised at all to hear this from you.
Your only wish is to see the npp in power but it won't happen. We know all your dirty tricks.
Tithes and offertories will now be paid according to the % fall of the cedi.
We as Ghanaians must watch our words when we are responding to men of God. Pastor Otabil in his presentation never predicted that the cedi will fall to $1/ghc10.
He sighted one scene rio a participant in the program prese ...

You are not an economist so, stick to your gospel. God does not fix economies, people do. If that were the case, Nigeria and Ghana will be the most advanced countries in the world. And have you asked yourself why there so ...

You sound like a prophet of doom. It is not good for your image as a motivational speaker.The Cedi will recover and you will be put to shame. Please read 2Kgs 7 1-20.
You have hit the nail right on the head. Ghana needs men of God like Otabil to move the country forward. I know the NDC apologists will take you on but always stand for the truth.

Where are the preachers of hope who can inspire hopeful visions among Ghanaians. God rise up for the "shepherds" are leading your sheep astray.
i hope when this tape is played back years later, otabil will not say he didn't say that. he's a man who hides behind the collar and the pulpit to campaign for npp.

Preach on Dan. There are chaffs amoung the wheat. Goats among the sheep. Tares will be separated and burnt!
I don't find anything wrong with wot Pastor Otabil said. I don't know if people really understood him. If they did and they are still insulting the man of God then God forgive us.
Man of God must be proposing solutions and stop the complaining. We all know what the problem is and we see it. What is his solution? Collecting tithes and donations and making himself rich at the expense of the poor?
LISTEN TO OTABIL.
YES....BUT YOU CAN,T JUST STAND THERE AND COMPLAIN. GHANAIANS MOVE ON!!!!!!!
ALL WE DO IS COMPLAIN AND WISH ILL FOR OUR COUNTRY. GOD SAVE US.
I don't think Pastor Otabil is a Ghanaian and a true Christian.
He is just against NDC government period.
I do not think he has any ideas to help the country. I do not think he really cares about the country. He just talk and is in to get free money from the people.
This was a scenario painted by one of the speakers at the event and not Otabil per se. He re-echoed that and said the possibility exist. It does not mean it will happen at all cost. please get your facts right
The cedi depreciated under Rawlings, Kufuor and Mills, so Mr. Otabil, this is no news. If we sit in Ghana and import virtually everything into our country, why will the cedi not fall. Pastor, do you eat local rice at home? I ...
