Leader of the Prophetic Hill Chapel, Prophet Nigel Gaisie has hit back at Apostle Lilian Kumah, wife of late Deputy Finance Minister, John Ampontuah Kumah, over the ongoing series of allegations following the demise of the woman’s husband.

Nigel Gaisie noted that he was never aware of John Kumah’s health status since all efforts made to reach the late deputy minister were blocked by his wife.

He indicated that he broke ties with the Kumah’s family after he gave a counter prophecy that John Mahama was going to win the 2016 elections, following a revelation he earlier gave about then-candidate Akuffo-Addo as the winner of the said election.

According to the prophet, he met the woman at a program at Obuasi where a revelation about her husband’s projection in an Akuffo-Addo government came up, through which they became close.

“…So the Lord revealed to me to tell them that the NDC will lose the election and John Kumah will become a Deputy Minister when Nana Addo comes to power. He asked me to pray for Nana Addo to win power so that he would help me when they win power. So I dedicated my son, Godsway Senaku to be praying with them,” he disclosed.

Nigel Gaisie further stated that, when he, however, later “prophesied that Mahama was going to win, they disconnected from me.”

“John [Kumah] told me along the way that he wants me to come home and speak to the electorates about what I have seen about him and the NPP so we prayed and I left within 5 minutes. 2015 till now I have never spoken to him before. It was last year that I saw the prophecy and due to Dampare’s orders, I couldn’t give out the direct details,” the Prophet explained.

According to Nigel Gaisie, he partially concealed as a result of the orders of the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Dr. George Akuffo Dampare, about prophecies in the country.

John Kumah’s Wife Makes A Threatening Statement

Lilian Kumah, the widow of the Deputy Minister of Finance, John Kumah, lamented about the theories of her husband having been poisoned to death, threatening that she would stop any of her children from holding public office if the allegations were not conclusively probed by Police.

The allegations were first made by Blessed Godsbrain Smart, popularly known as Captain Smart.

Lilian, who is the General Overseer of Disciples of Christ Ministries, expressed concern over the speculative nature of reports surrounding her husband’s demise.

“The way they are speculating about his death, it is really unfortunate and it is discouraging. I am beginning to feel discouraged by the legal system in Ghana. Why would someone be saying all these things, that he knows the person who poisoned him? This guy used his whole life to serve the country from his university days.”

Lilian expressed disbelief that someone claiming knowledge of her husband’s poisoning had been freely moving around without facing legal consequences for the past three weeks.

“So, if indeed someone poisoned him during the time that he was working for the country and his political party, why don’t we bring that person to book? This country is not worth living for, not alone to talk about dying for if it is true a living human is claiming that he knows how my husband died, that he was poisoned, and that person is still moving around for the past three weeks, I am very much pained and sad,” she noted.

“If there are laws in this country, this is the time, and I am telling the laws of the land and even the leadership of the land to bring that wicked man, the one Captain Smart is referring to, to book. If not, none of my children will serve this country…If not, no child of my womb will serve this country,” she further added.

In the immediate aftermath of John Kumah’s death, videos of a recent edition of Captain Smart’s show resurfaced on social media.

Among other things, the journalist alleged that the MP and some leading figures of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) had been targeted with food poisoning.

He noted that the MP suffered food poisoning together with the NPP’s Ashanti Regional Chairman, Bernard Antwi Boasiako also known as Chairman Wontumi some weeks ago.

The NPP MP, John Kumah died on Thursday, March 7, 2024, at the Suhum Government Hospital.
