The controversial traditional priest made the admission during a TikTok Live session with the Influencer LFC Girl on July 9, 2026, alleging that he spiritually "tied" the Black Stars following a lack of appreciation for what he says was his involvement in the tournament. Blogger We Love Ghana shared the clip on X on July 10, drawing immediate attention online.
Kwaku Bonsam's Harry Kane spiritual claim
Before the World Cup kicked off, Kwaku Bonsam had publicly declared his intention to use spiritual means to stop England captain Harry Kane from scoring in Ghana's Group L clash.
When the match ended in a goalless draw on June 23, 2026, with Kane squandering a late chance to win it for England, Bonsam was convinced his intervention had worked. The result gave Ghana a creditable point against one of the tournament favourites.
Despite that outcome, Bonsam said no one from the Ghana Football Association or the government came forward to acknowledge his role.
He disclosed that Ghana's Sports Minister bypassed him entirely, choosing instead to visit the church of Adom Kyei-Duah to pray for the Black Stars ahead of the tournament. For Bonsam, that was a clear signal that his abilities were being dismissed.
"Nobody thanked me except a chief from the Volta Region," he said.
Kwaku Bonsam reportedly ties Black Stars
His response to the perceived disrespect, he claims, was to spiritually turn against the very team he had sought to protect.
Bonsam said he made the decision to tie the Black Stars after concluding that his contributions were unwelcome, and he now maintains that Ghana's failure to progress in the competition is directly linked to that action.
The witch doctor offered no evidence to back the claim.
