Prophet Telvin Adjei Sowah has once again stirred conversation after sharing his views on the spiritual condition of players in Ghana’s national football team, the Black Stars, ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
Speaking in an interview with broadcast journalist Nana Romeo, excerpts of which were shared on TikTok, the prophet suggested that not all players are spiritually grounded enough to represent the nation at the highest level.

He argued that selection into the national team should consider not only physical ability but also spiritual strength, insisting that players who are “well-grounded spiritually” deserve preference in the squad.
As part of his commentary, Prophet Telvin referenced defender Jonas Adjetey, claiming the player has conceded two penalties recently and attributing it to what he described as spiritual weakness.
He further described Antoine Semenyo, who currently plays for Manchester City, as a player who is spiritually strong and well-prepared for challenges ahead, predicting that his performances will improve significantly in the coming months.
The prophet also mentioned former Black Stars captain André Ayew, describing him as another player who is spiritually fortified and resilient.
He maintained that football is not purely a physical sport, but one influenced by spiritual forces that can impact performance on the pitch.
According to him, while many people believe spirituality in football is more prevalent in Africa, European teams also engage in such practices, although they tend to do so more discreetly.

His remarks have since generated mixed reactions online, with some agreeing with his spiritual perspective on sport, while others have dismissed the claims as controversial

Prophet raises alarm on Black Stars' spiritual capacity
Prophet Telvin Adjei Sowah, founder and superintendent of the Prophetic Life Ministry, has sparked conversation after sharing his views on the spiritual state of Ghana’s national football team, the Black Stars, ahead of the 2026 World Cup.

According to the prophet, the team’s spiritual foundation is weak and requires urgent attention as preparations for the global tournament continue.
He explained that internal actions among players are partly responsible for the situation, alleging that some individuals resort to spiritual means in a bid to outshine their teammates and secure positions in the squad.
He noted that such practices create tension both on and off the pitch, affecting team unity and overall performance.
The prophet further claimed that, in some instances, individuals may attempt to influence outcomes to make it appear that the team’s struggles are linked to the absence of certain players.
As a solution, he said he is committed to helping rebuild what he described as the team’s spiritual foundation through an approach he calls the “Better Ghana Principle”.
He emphasised that the success of the Black Stars goes beyond football results, adding that it contributes to the country’s global image and national pride.
His remarks have since generated mixed reactions online, with some agreeing with his concerns while others have questioned the claims.
