According to him, the vision showed a moment where the election would be forced to pause due to acts of intimidation and unrest. He alleged that groups linked to a particular aspirant would cause disturbances aimed at discouraging delegates perceived to support rival candidates.

In his account, these individuals would allegedly be mobilised with incentives, including vehicles, to influence the atmosphere at voting centres.

As the prophecy unfolded, the cleric stressed that such actions, if allowed to occur, could undermine the democratic spirit of the party’s internal processes. He urged party leadership and stakeholders to prioritise peace, fairness, and transparency throughout the exercise.

Transitioning from the primaries to the national picture, Prophet Baffour Asare extended his message beyond January 31. He claimed that although the same candidate associated with the alleged unrest would eventually secure the party’s flagbearership, the journey would not end favourably.

In his words, the vision showed the candidate leading the NPP into the 2028 general elections but falling short at the polls. The prophet attributed this outcome to internal divisions, unresolved grievances, and the lingering impact of actions taken during the primaries.

He reminded his congregation that leadership, whether political or spiritual, thrives on unity and humility rather than force. Drawing parallels with biblical lessons, he emphasised that victories achieved through intimidation often struggle to stand the test of time.

As discussions around the prophecy continue online and within political circles, reactions remain mixed. While some view his message as a spiritual caution worth considering, others see it as part of the heightened tension that often accompanies major political contests.

With the NPP flagbearership race drawing closer, Prophet Baffour Asare’s words have added a new layer to the conversation, one that blends faith, politics, and the ever-present call for peaceful democratic engagement.
