Nigel Gaisie condemns attack on Prophet fire Oja’s church
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.
