Prophet drops Ghana's World Cup prophecy
According to him, any major adjustment involving Otto Addo or the group that secured qualification could derail the team on the global stage.
He insisted that divine favour has been granted to the squad as currently built and urged the Ghana Football Association (GFA) to ignore calls for sweeping changes.
“If they change the coach or the core of the team, Ghana will suffer at the World Cup,” he warned in an interview with Accra FM.
He added that Ghana will be placed in a group with only one established team and that “if they don't breach time, we will score everyone 'basa basa'. If they change the goalkeeper [Benjamin Asare], they've killed everything."
The prophet further warned against introducing foreign-born players at the wrong moment, saying such decisions would cause Ghana to lose all three group games.
He stressed that even the weakest team in the group would beat the Black Stars if his message is ignored.

This vision comes on the back of the GFA's interest in beefing up the overall quality of the squad with foreign-born stars, as cited by Flashscore.
The Sun adds that already Callum Hudson-Odoi is working behind the scenes to secure all the necessary paperwork to make the switch possible and play for Ghana at the World Cup.

His revelation, delivered before the official draw on December 5, triggered a flurry of reactions online.
Many followers backed the prophet's vision, suggesting it will be essential in navigating a demanding World Cup group, while others questioned the necessity of relying on prophecies during a period of preparation. YEN.com.gh has compiled some reactions online:
