The preacher is said to have landed in trouble after authorities and members of the public took issue with remarks he allegedly made during one of his prophetic sessions.
In the now viral clip, Gyimah William was heard making gloomy predictions about Ghana’s future under the current administration.
Williams Gyimah predicted doom for Ghana
According to him, the country was going to experience hardship, suffering, and difficult times during Mahama’s term in office.
He further claimed that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) should not have returned to power, insisting that Ghanaians voted based on frustration and disappointment with the previous government rather than divine direction.
According to his remarks, many people believed the New Patriotic Party (NPP) had mishandled the country’s resources, and that this anger influenced the election outcome.
He also suggested that former President Nana Akufo-Addo was not appreciated enough for what he had done for Ghana, and that the current state of affairs was a form of consequence facing the nation.
Prophet Williams prophecy deemed threatening
What appears to have drawn even more backlash, however, were the alleged spiritual threats he directed toward Lordina Mahama, comments many online users found disturbing and inappropriate.
Since the video surfaced, reactions on social media have been intense, with many Ghanaians debating whether prophecies of this nature should be treated as free speech, political commentary, or dangerous public incitement.
Others have also questioned whether some religious leaders are crossing the line by using the pulpit to make statements that could trigger fear, panic, or political tension.

The incident has once again opened up conversations around the growing influence of prophetic declarations in Ghana’s political space, and how far such pronouncements should be allowed to go before they are treated as a national concern.
