Throwing more light on the matter, he explained that Jedidiah Henry Kore, popularly known as Fire Oja, reportedly walked out of the Naa We Arbitration Court after judgment was delivered in a case involving him and another traditional spiritual practitioner, Ola Maame.

According to Nii Lantey Okunka, walking out on the elders before the Naa We Arbitration Court had formally adjourned proceedings constitutes a serious act of disrespect under customary practice, and he is therefore demanding that Jedidiah Henry Kore be made to return and render an unqualified apology to the court.

He further urged leaders within the various communities where the prophet is believed to operate to, as a matter of urgency, place an embargo on his activities and cooperate with traditional authorities to ensure he appears before the court to apologise.

"Fire Oja walked out on the traditional leaders when judgment was passed. My name is Nii Lantey Okunka, and I hail from Lantey Jan-We.

"We, as Ga people, have been too lenient, and that is why acts of disrespect like this occur. Our leaders must act decisively now and call him to order."

The Naa We Arbitration Court is a customary dispute resolution authority that handles family matters, debt claims, chieftaincy cases, and a wide range of community-related disputes.

Appointed traditional elders typically oversee adjudication, hearing both sides of a case and questioning witnesses where necessary. Resolutions are most often achieved through negotiation and restitution, with a strong focus on reconciliation rather than punishment.
