That isn\u2019t it at all but at least, I would have some years to finish my work on earth and not die prematurely.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is painful to die at a time when you have so much going for you. That is why I\u2019m encouraging my colleagues to act on these prophecies whether they are genuine or fake,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The prophecies by men of God have caused panic and anger not only among the entertainment industry\u2019s players but among a large section of the population who believe the prophets are seeking self-glorification.<\/p>\n<p>One man who won\u2019t stand for any doom prophecies is Dancehall bad boy, Shatta Wale.<\/p>\n<p>A few days after Ebony\u2019s death, one Prophet E. K. Mensah of the Christ Vision Prayer Ministry in Kumasi said Shatta was the next to die. He reportedly said the Taking Over artiste won\u2019t live beyond the month of July.<\/p>\n<p>True to form, Shatta Wale vented his anger at such prophets and threatened to burn churches should he live till December and he has also released a song titled True Believers which criticises fake men of God but Kaakyire Kwame Appiah says such actions are unnecessary.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou lose nothing if you take the necessary steps to avoid the negative pronouncements because you can\u2019 tell the veracity of the prophecy.<\/p>\n<p>Whether it is from God or not, yours is to pray and that is what my colleagues are losing sight of.<\/p>\n<p>I want to use this opportunity to tell them not to discount such prophecies,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 65 updated by: 65 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Entertainment of Thursday, 22 February 2018 Source: Graphic.com.gh 2018-02-22 Highlife artiste, Kaakyire Kwame Appiah Critism of the practice where prophets publicly announce the deaths of public figures has been growing over the years and has become worse in the aftermath of the death of Dancehall artiste Ebony but Highlife artiste, Kaakyire Kwame Appiah says that [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":448118,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-466567","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/466567","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=466567"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/466567\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=466567"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=466567"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=466567"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
