According to the leader of the Prophetic Life Embassy, Ayew holds a decisive moment that could shape the Black Stars' journey at the Mundial.
“Dede Ayew has one goal that takes us [Ghana] off to the next stage,” he said.
The man of God went further, warning that excluding the former captain from the squad could lead to an early exit.
In his view, Ayew’s contribution will come in dramatic fashion, describing a fortunate strike that ricochets off his left foot and ends up in the net.

He portrayed the experienced attacker as a timely influence, insisting that doubts about his age and form are misplaced.
“We are not forcing them [to believe our prophecy], we are just telling them,” he added.
When asked whether national team officials needed to consult him directly, Prophet Sowah suggested preparations were already in motion. He stressed that Ayew must be included and used wisely rather than left unused.
“They should make sure Dede Ayew goes to the World Cup. He has one goal. They shouldn’t just put him on the bench [to rot]. There’s a time he will come in [to score the all important goal].”
He also revealed a specific moment tied to his vision, claiming the goal arrives late in the contest, specifically in the 79th minute.
“He [Andre Ayew] doesn’t have to play all the games. He will become the headline.”

Ayew's reality check vs Ghana's WC plan
The prophecy contrasts sharply with Ayew’s current situation. The 36-year-old has been without a club since departing French outfit Le Havre and last featured for the Black Stars during a friendly against Uganda in March 2024, per Ghanasoccernet.
His most recent tournament outing ended painfully, as Ghana conceded two late goals against Mozambique at the 2023 AFCON.

Despite that history, Ayew remains Ghana's most capped footballer with 120 appearances for the Black Stars, per Transfermarkt.
His leadership and ability to make crucial contributions are well documented. However, with age working against him and nearly six months without competitive football, his inclusion in the Black Stars squad is sure to raise questions.
