Synagogue Church of All Nations donates to the aged in North-East Region
About 141 females at the camp are branded witches
Pastor Evelyn Joshua, Head of the Synagogue Church of All Nations recently despatched the Emmanuel Television Partners ably led by Lawyer John Ajet-Nasam to make two separate donations of various items to the aged in the North East Region as well as alleged witches and wizards in the Northern Region of Ghana.
In the North East Region, the team presented rice, gari and maize to the elderly at Naminyilla in the West Mamprusi District on March 4, 2023.
About 30 older women in the community also received wax prints from Pastor Evelyn Joshua with the accompanying message to the people that her gesture was based on love and urged the beneficiaries to do same regardless of ethnicity, religion or creed.
Presenting the items, Lawyer Ajet-Nasam underscored the legacy left by Prophet Temitope Balogun Joshua popularly called Prophet TB Joshua of blessed memory which members of the church would continue to follow.
He buttressed his short address with a quotation of the late famous and popular man of God and what he stood for:
“Some people see giving as a way of helping those they are giving to; as a result, they magnify themselves above those they are giving to.” T.B. Joshua.
Following the stance of the church with regard to charity to humankind and seeing giving as “a rare Grace from God,” about 80 elderly people were blessed on that joyful day.
In a related development, Lawyer John Ajet-Nasam and the Emmanuel TV Team made another donation to the unfortunate people who had been branded witches and wizards and confined to a camp at Ghani in the Yendi Municipality of the Northern Region.
The inmates at the alleged witches and wizards camp comprised 141 females and 88 males. They received gari and rice from the Team for their upkeep.
The delegation led by Lawyer Ajet-Nasam was welcomed by Tindan Shay, a chief overseeing these marginalised persons in the community.
He appreciated the support given by some Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) such as AcionAid as well as the churches and made a passionate appeal to the Emmanuel TV Team for a mechanised borehole since the older ones among the inmates had no energy to pump the only borehole which was their main source of potable water.
The inmates were extremely grateful to Pastor Evelyn Joshua for her motherly support and appealed to the Emmanuel TV team not to forget of them.

Ghana’s parliament has marked the 2nd edition of May Day 2026 under the theme “ Welcome Home”.
It was special day meant to celebrate the invaluable support of the workforce, recognizing the commitment, resilience, and contributions of workers to institutional growth and national development.
Delivering the message on behalf of the Speaker, the 1st Deputy Speaker, Bernard Ahiafor, described the theme as very apt, appropriate, and timely, noting that Parliament is more than a workplace, it is a shared home.
He emphasized that we cannot speak about work without speaking about people, reminding everyone that the true measure of our work is the well-being of our people.
He urged that our traditional clothing become an integral part of our everyday clothing, and that our local languages must become integral to our daily lives, interwoven into education and practiced at home.
Referencing Standing Order 63, which captures the use of local language as optional in deliberations, he encouraged a renewed commitment to identity, saying it is significant that we “come home” and present who we are so future generations can inherit a story they can fully tell.
The Clerk, Mr. Ebenezer Ahumah Djietror, in his remarks commended officers for their dedication and devotion to duty, calling on them to go the extra mile and leave legacies.
Echoing the reminder that an unexamined life is not worth living, he described the event as an invitation to reconnect with our roots through cultural revival.
The Deputy Clerk, C&FMS, Dr. Gloria Sarku Kumawu, urged all not to forget their roots, the people behind the stories of ministries, industries, and the strides made both in-house and beyond.
What began last year has now become a meaningful tradition, showcasing Ghanaian heritage, fostering unity, and encouraging innovation under the principle of diversity for unity and diversity for progress, she added.
The gathering brought together leadership, public officials, and staff across all levels, along with the media, standing as a unifying platform that honored service, celebrated culture, and reaffirmed a shared commitment to national development.
