NDC are sleeping spiritually, they have not already won elections 2024 – Prophet Nigel Gaisie
Founder of Prophetic Hill Chapel, Prophet Nigel Gaisie has cautioned the National Democratic Congress against complacency in the upcoming elections.
According to him, the party is sleeping spiritually, and must do everything possible to get rid of the notion that they have won the 2024 elections already.
“You should tell the NDC people that they are sleeping spiritually, if they think they have already won the elections, that is dangerous, the NDC should note that they have not already won the next general election,” he said.
The Man of God during a church service on Sunday, disclosed that the winner of the next election keeps changing and for this reason, the party should not be comfortable.
“Today is 4th August, the Lord has shown me to tell the National Democratic Congress and Ghana that NDC should not think they have already won the next general election, they are sleeping spiritually, they are sleeping spiritually, they are sleeping spiritually,” he emphasized.
According to him, NDC would make a great mistake thinking the hardship in the country will propel them to victory.
He added that should opportunity slip the party, God will not forgive John Dramani Mahama.
“The NDC should wake because they are sleeping, I am a prophet, you can insult me whatever, I speak and say what I see, I never said the NDC will not win, they are sleeping spiritually,” Prophet Nigel Gaisie concluded.

Chief Imam endorses ‘Let Love Lead’s’ clean-up campaign at Nkrumah Circle
The National Chief Imam, Sheikh Osman Nuhu Sharubutu, has thrown his weight behind the upcoming city-wide clean-up exercise scheduled for Saturday, June 14, 2025, at Kwame Nkrumah Circle.
The revered Islamic leader gave his blessing during a consultative meeting with organisers of the exercise, calling the initiative a “commendable national duty” that aligns with both religious and civic responsibility.
The clean-up, which marks the third edition of a growing sanitation drive, is being organised by community stakeholders and supported by civil society groups.
This year’s exercise is especially symbolic as it coincides with the 10th anniversary of the June 3, 2015 flood and fire disaster that claimed over 150 lives at the same location.
“The well-being of our people and the cleanliness of our environment are acts of faith and service,” the Chief Imam said.
“We must all come together—Christians, Muslims, traditionalists, and non-religious people alike—to honour the memory of those lost and prevent future tragedies,” He added.
Organisers, ‘Let Love Lead’, say the Chief Imam’s endorsement adds significant moral weight to the campaign, which already enjoys growing national support.
Engagements have also been held with traditional rulers, MPs, government officials, and social influencers to galvanise wider participation.
This year’s event is expected to go beyond sanitation. Side activities include medical outreach, disaster preparedness education, interfaith prayers, and donations to victims of the June 3 disaster.
Nene Lartey Osakonor I (Big Dawood), a traditional leader spearheading coordination, described the Chief Imam’s support as “invaluable.”
He said, “We are deeply honoured by the Chief Imam’s endorsement.
“His message is a powerful reminder that sanitation is not just a government or NGO responsibility—it’s a spiritual and civic duty,” he added.
More institutions, volunteers, and media houses are expected to join the campaign as the date draws near.
