In a bold and uncompromising statement, Prophet Daniel Jeddman has issued a stern warning to radio and television stations across the country: stop giving airtime to self-styled prophets who only surface when Ghana is gripped by high-profile tragedies.
According to Jeddman, these so-called men of God deliberately wait for national disasters, celebrity deaths, or government crises before rushing to the media with “visions” they claim to have received. “They wrongly allegorise and twist the truth in God’s word just to validate themselves,” he said, speaking from his ministry headquarters.
Jeddman believes this pattern is dangerous, both spiritually and socially. “When tragedy strikes, the nation needs comfort, prayer, and unity—not opportunistic prophecies designed to stir fear and boost someone’s popularity,” he declared.
Media Platforms Under Scrutiny
The prophet’s comments have sparked renewed debate over the role of Ghana’s media in amplifying sensational religious claims. Many broadcasters have been criticised for granting long, unfiltered interviews to prophets whose statements often cannot be verified but can influence public mood.
Jeddman insists that media houses have a moral responsibility to discern who they hand the microphone to. “The media must guard the airwaves. Not every voice that says ‘God told me’ is speaking for God,” he said.
Call for National Discernment
He urged Ghanaians to study the Bible for themselves and test every prophecy against scripture rather than blindly believing dramatic predictions tied to famous people or tragic events. “If a prophecy only appears after the news headlines, it is not a prophecy—it is opportunism dressed in church clothes,” Jeddman emphasised.
Religious watchdogs, civil society groups, and even some senior clergy have echoed his sentiments, warning that false prophecies erode public trust in genuine ministries and exploit the emotions of grieving families.
As the nation continues to mourn recent tragedies, Prophet Daniel Jeddman’s words ring with urgency: “In times of pain, we must be a voice of healing, not of fear. Ghana must rise above spiritual showmanship and return to the heart of true prophecy.”
