Prophet Oduro delivered a sermon addressing the prevalent issues of corruption, impunity, and underdevelopment in Ghana. He expressed disappointment in the lack of action from the Special Prosecutor in prosecuting public officials for financial misconduct or abuse of power.
The sermon also touched on the performance of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) and the Black Stars at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Côte D’Ivoire. Prophet Oduro questioned the accountability of the teams and criticized the lack of patriotism and commitment among players, suggesting that they perform better for their clubs than for the national team.
Another point of criticism was the age of Ghana’s presidents. Prophet Oduro argued that individuals over 55 are too old to effectively lead the nation and advocated for presidents to be between 30 and 55 years old. He expressed skepticism about the capabilities of older leaders and emphasized the need for a younger leadership approach for effective governance.
Overall, his critique raised concerns about the direction in which the country is heading and emphasized the need for a change in leadership approach. Prophet Oduro’s sermon highlighted the need for accountability in public office, commitment and patriotism in sports, and the importance of effective and capable leadership in Ghana. His message resonated with many individuals who are similarly frustrated with the current state of affairs in the country.
