A Ghanaian prophet, Prophet Mensah, has issued a seven-day ultimatum to Ghanaian rapper Sarkodie to apologise to President John Dramani Mahama over a recent comment he made.
Sarkodie, who many said had been silent and refused to criticise the previous government led by President Akufo-Addo, suddenly found his voice when John Dramani Mahama was elected President.
On Wednesday, January 9, 2025, two days after John Dramani Mahama was sworn into office, the award-winning rapper posted a cryptic message on his official Instagram stories.
"Back to gari soakings like we never left," he wrote on his Instagram stories.
The post attracted mixed reactions from Ghanaians. Many were unhappy with him and tagged the post as a political comment.
However, others defended Sarkodie, claiming that the post was not politically motivated.
Prophet Mensah reacts to Sarkodie's "gari soakings" comment
Despite the various justifications, Prophet Mensah strongly believes that Sarkodie's message was directed at President John Dramani Mahama.
He deems the comment disrespectful and has asked the rapper to apologise or face his wrath.
In a video, the prophet was seen boiling a mixture of herbs in a rubber bucket over a fire, declaring that he would use the fire demonstration to cast extreme poverty upon Sarkodie and his family if he failed to apologise to the President.

"Sarkodie should just advise himself and stay very far away from all political issues for now. He stayed quiet for 8 years and as a matter of principle, he should remain quiet. The atmosphere ain’t great for him. He should watch his steps."
