During an interview with Kumasi's Royal TV, Appiah Stadium weighed in on the increasing involvement of religious leaders in current affairs and politics.
He accused the religious leaders of manipulating their prophecies and visions to secure favours from the president.
"All the prophets (Owusu Bempah) and co who have focused on politics are staking bets. All of them follow what the voters are saying to make their predictions. Nigel Gaisie sometimes calls me to know what happens on the ground. The next day, you'll hear it in his prophecy," Appiah Stadium established.
According to the staunch supporter of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), the prophets have sinister motives to allegedly extort the president of the day.
"I know some preachers who are bent on profiting off John Mahama for supporting him. If the president wasn't strong-willed with his commitment to Ghana, they would frustrate him," Appiah Stadium said.
The NDC political commentator said the prophets had hidden the truth but were feeding Ghanaians lies.
"They are constantly trying to cause fear and panic. How can a preacher say he prophesied to elect Ghana's president when he couldn't even catch a vision that he would be arrested by the police?" Appiah Stadium questioned.
