Founder and leader of the Prophetic Hill Chapel, Nigel Gaisie, has strongly condemned an alleged attack on the church of fellow preacher, Prophet Fire Oja, by a group of masked men.
In a statement, he described the incident as unacceptable and called on authorities to take swift action against those responsible.
“I condemn with the highest level of force what the unguided and unscrupulous masked men went to do at Prophet Fire Oja’s church,” he said.
He urged the Ghana Police Service to arrest the perpetrators and ensure justice is served.
He called on the Ministry of Chieftaincy and Religious Affairs to intervene.
According to him, Ghana must not tolerate such acts, especially within religious spaces.
“Ghana is not a jungle,” he said, adding that no individual has the right to attack a pastor while they are preaching.
He suggested that anyone with grievances should seek legal redress rather than resorting to violence.
“If not a private hate or interest against the prophetic ministry, no sensible person must attack a man or woman of God behind the pulpit. You can wait or at best go to court,” he stated.
Gaisie further expressed concern about what he described as growing disrespect towards the prophetic ministry in the country.
“Enough of the disrespect against the prophetic ministry in Ghana,” he added.

Parliament has clarified public commentary on social media regarding a notice on its notice board that read “No Vacancy for National Service Personnel 2026/2027. Kindly go for reposting.”
In a statement, signed by the Director of Media Relations, David Sebastian Damoah, Parliament said the notice has been misconstrued and was not a policy statement, a freeze on national service placements, or a change in its support for the National Service Scheme.
According to Parliament, the notice was a routine administrative message to prospective personnel who reported to the House, informing them that it has received more personnel than it can accommodate for the 2026/2027 service year and that they should seek reposting to other institutions.
It said it remains committed to the National Service Scheme and values the contribution of service personnel to its work, and regrets any confusion or inconvenience the wording may have caused.

Ghanaian public advocate Hopeson Yaovi Adorye has been elected to the Board of Directors of the World Taxpayers Association (WTA).
The election took place on Sunday, October 5, 2026, during the Association’s conference in Kraków, Poland.
His election marks a significant addition to his international leadership portfolio and provides a platform for Ghanaian and African perspectives to contribute to global discussions on taxpayer rights, responsible taxation, transparency and prudent management of public resources.
Reacting to his election, Mr. Adorye expressed appreciation to the leadership and members of the WTA for the confidence reposed in him.
“I am deeply honoured by this confidence and conscious of the responsibility that comes with it. Taxpayers are at the heart of every economy, and they deserve fairness, transparency, accountability and value for the taxes they pay. I look forward to working with colleagues from across the world to strengthen the voice of taxpayers and promote responsible fiscal governance,” he said.
According to him, taxation should not be viewed solely as a mechanism for raising government revenue, but also as an important component of the social contract between citizens and the state.
Mr. Adorye said governments have a responsibility to ensure taxes are collected fairly and public resources are utilised efficiently to deliver quality infrastructure, healthcare, education, security and other essential services.
His election also creates an opportunity to bring African experiences into international conversations on taxation and public expenditure.
Mr. Adorye, who is Executive Director of Taxpayers League Ghana, has previously served as Global Board Chairman of the International Youth Network for UN Security Council Resolution 2250, an NGO associated with the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC).
He is expected to use his new role to champion fiscal accountability, taxpayer education, good governance and stronger citizen participation in public financial management.
