In a recent video shared on social media, the man of God, who sounded angry, blasted the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) government over the issues that have sparked concerns among Ghanaians.
Addressing his congregants, Prophet Kofi Oduro stated that he had to sleep in darkness the night before service because the lights had been switched off for hours.
The leader of Alabaster International Ministry also detailed how a church member had to come to service in a crumpled dress because she had probably experienced a blackout.
“I do not care who is in power; this shouldn't be happening. A nation celebrating 70 years shouldn't be experiencing this. I had to sleep without light late night because of the dumsor. When I was coming to church, I saw a member with her dress crumpled she might have experienced the light out but because she wanted to worship God she decided to put it on,” he said.
Prophet Kofi Oduro further sent a strong warning to the ruling party, saying:
“That thing must stop. That nonsense must stop.”
According to the man of God, anytime concerns are raised about pressing issues in Ghana, people would start politicising it.
Referring to the Free Zone CEO’s attack on the Pentecost chairman, Prophet Kofi Oduro stated that the habit must stop.
The outspoken clergyman also raised concerns about prepaid consumption. In his words, he used to buy prepaid worth GH¢1000, which usually runs out after one week, but he claimed that the same amount needs to be bought after three days.
Prophet Oduro spoke about the reported xenophobia attack on immigrants in South Africa, sending a message to the country's president, Cyril Ramaphosa, saying;
“If you don't stop the madness by your citizens against other Africans, you will have yourself to blame. Take responsibility before the whole of Africa rises against you. If all Africans decide to sack over 10,000 South Africans from their country, you won't be a happy person.”
“Don’t forget there are other big companies in Ghana owned by South Africans. In this era, we still find these people going into shops and calling other Africans foreigners. Which nations don't have foreigners? When you came like ‘animals’, the whole of Africa rose for you, and today you are standing against them. I am calling on the president to act now.”

Ghanaian trader speaks on dumsor issue
In an interview with YEN.com.gh, a trader named Roseline Owusu, who operates a cold store at Amasaman Market, spoke about her experience with the dumsor issues.
"As a trader who used to buy large quantities of meat, fish, and chicken to resell, I have decided to reduce my usual amount out of fear of loss."
"On a normal day, I buy 7 to 10 boxes of meat, fish, and chicken, but I took that decision after the dumsor on Saturday, April 25, made my sausages go bad."
"I never wanted to speak about this matter, but it's getting out of hand, and so I am pleading with our president, Ye Wura Mahama, to do something about the issue."
"I heard some machines had caught fire, but we are begging him, he should try and fix it fast so that we will all be at peace."
