Accra: Prophet Samuel Henry, popularly known as Prophet Roja, has made a startling prediction regarding Ghana's electoral future, claiming that the country will not hold elections in 2028. He attributes this to a series of events anticipated to occur in 2026, which he believes will significantly impact the nation's electoral process.
According to Ghana Web, Prophet Roja mentioned in a viral video that discussions about the next election will begin, eventually reaching Parliament, and will have consequences for the 2028 elections. He recounted a previous prophecy made during a conversation with Sakyiwaa, stating, "In June, it will end up in Parliament and it will affect the 2028 election."
Prophet Roja took the opportunity to urge Members of Parliament to enact laws in the best interest of Ghanaians, emphasizing, "I am not a politician. I don't know much about the law. I want to urge MPs to pass laws that will benefit Ghanaians."
In his statements, the prophet also suggested that the outcomes of elections are first determined in the spiritual realm before manifesting in the physical world. He noted, "Anything that has happened today happened long ago in the spiritual realm. The next election, the realms will open from September to October. If it opens and you are not able to maintain the seat, that is it."
He further advised Members of Parliament seeking to retain their positions to seek spiritual guidance during the critical period from September to October, saying, "I remember they said if you are an MP, the realms will open September to October, so MPs can consult spiritualists if they want to maintain their seat."
This prophecy comes amid ongoing discussions about Ghana's presidential term limits, prompted by a lawsuit filed at the Supreme Court. Two individuals, Ganiwu Alhassan, a teacher from the Northern Region, and Kenneth Kwabena Agyei Kuranchie, Editor of the Daily Searchlight newspaper, are seeking an interpretation of Article 66(2) of the 1992 Constitution. The provision states that a person shall not be elected to hold office as President of Ghana for more than two terms.
President John Dramani Mahama, who returned to office in 2025 after previously serving from 2013 to 2017, has expressed his commitment to fulfilling his current mandate. "The people of Ghana gave me a mandate for one term. And I am working hard to meet the promises I made them," he stated, emphasizing his government's urgency in delivering on commitments.
The outcome of the Supreme Court's interpretation is expected to clarify whether the two-term limit applies only to consecutive terms or bars a person outright after serving two terms in any form.
