Ghanaian gospel musician, Nana Yaw Boakye, well known as MOG Music has applauded the Ghana Police Service on their directives to maintain law and order in the country by clamping down on the influx of doom prophecies and false publications that cause fear and panic among citizens in the country.

According to him, the move made by the authorities to call churches and clergymen to order to be measured in their utterances, especially with doom prophecies has brought a significant level of peace and order in the country.
Speaking in an interview on Joy FM’s “The Reason Is Jesus”, MOG Music stated he could not fathom why end-of-year prophecies are mostly centered on negative issues and not positive ones that would propel national unity.
“I think it brought sanity and a certain level of peace to people in Ghana because every 31st December, the prophecies that come largely spell doom on people. You [pastors and prophets] have their numbers or can get them,”
He further suggested that the use of phone calls to reach out to subjects in most doom prophecies seems to be the right channel rather than men of God publicly making their utterances to cause fear and panic in the country.
I believe a phone call is fair rather than standing on television to say all those things; so, it has brought a certain level of order and peace to the hearts of people. If you can call them personally and say it, it’s a blessing,” he noted.
Meanwhile, the Ghana Police Service in a statement stated that any clergyman or publication portals who make claims on their platforms without any evidence to substantiate their claims are eligible to spend five years in prison.
