‘Not Chosen by Merit’ – Ghanaian Prophet Predicts Short Papacy for Pope Leo XIV

Published

Ghanaian prophet Eric Boahen Uche has recently stirred controversy with his prophecy concerning the newly elected Pope Leo XIV. According to Prophet Uche, Pope Leo XIV did not attain his position based on merit and will not remain in office beyond four years, suggesting a premature end to his papacy.

Who Is Prophet Eric Boahen Uche?

Prophet Eric Boahen Uche is the founder and leader of Reign House Chapel in Ghana. He has gained attention for his prophetic declarations, some of which have coincided with actual events. For instance, in 2023, he predicted a total internet blackout in Ghana for 2024, which materialized in March 2024, disrupting communication and business activities across the nation [1] . Additionally, he forecasted numerous fire outbreaks in Ghana for 2025, with a significant fire occurring in the Kantamanto market area in January 2025.

The Election of Pope Leo XIV
Pope Leo XIV, born Robert Francis Prevost, was elected as the 267th pope of the Roman Catholic Church on May 8, 2025. He is notable for being the first American and the first member of the Order of Saint Augustine to become pope. His election followed the death of Pope Francis on April 21, 2025. Pope Leo XIV has been recognized for his commitment to social justice, inclusivity, and unity within the Church.

Analyzing the Prophecy

Prophet Uche’s assertion that Pope Leo XIV’s election was not based on merit challenges the traditional understanding of the papal selection process, which involves a conclave of cardinals who vote to elect the new pope. The claim of a four-year tenure is also significant, as papal terms are typically for life, barring resignation.

While the prophecy has garnered attention, it’s important to note that such claims are not uncommon in religious circles. Prophet Uche has previously made predictions about political events, including a prophecy regarding Ghana’s December 7 elections, where he claimed a flagbearer would be shot, leading to the postponement of the elections.

Prophet Eric Boahen Uche’s prophecy about Pope Leo XIV adds to his repertoire of controversial predictions. While some of his past prophecies have coincided with actual events, others remain unverified. As with all prophetic declarations, it’s essential to approach them with discernment and consider the broader context within which they are made.

Health authorities have confirmed two new Mpox cases in the Accra Metropolitan Area of the Greater Accra Region. These are the first confirmed infections reported in Ghana this year.

In response, the Ghana Health Service (GHS) has instructed all regional health directors to reactivate their Public Health Emergency Operations Centres. They have also been directed to intensify surveillance, risk communication, and case management efforts nationwide.

The two cases are unrelated and were both detected at a healthcare facility. Contact tracing is underway, and the patients are currently under close monitoring to prevent further transmission.

Ghana’s Mpox outbreak began on June 8, 2022, with five initial cases. By November 2023, 34 confirmed cases had been recorded. Before this outbreak, Mpox was not considered endemic in Ghana.

In a circular signed by the Director-General, the GHS called for a renewed and coordinated national response, emphasizing the need for enhanced detection and containment strategies.

Mpox is a viral disease similar to smallpox, characterized by fever, swollen lymph nodes, and a rash. It spreads through direct contact with an infected person’s skin, bodily fluids, or during sexual contact. Symptoms include fever, rash or lesions, fatigue, headaches, muscle and back pain, and swollen glands.

Across Africa, Mpox remains a serious public health issue. As of March 2025, over 24,200 cases and approximately 260 deaths have been reported in 22 countries. The Democratic Republic of the Congo has been the most affected, accounting for the majority of cases and fatalities.

Prof. Ameyaw-Akumfi Charged Over Unexecuted $2 Million Sky Train Deal

Published

Professor Christopher Ameyaw-Akumfi, former Board Chair of the Ghana Infrastructure Investment Fund (GIIF), has been formally charged with conspiracy to commit a crime—specifically, wilfully causing financial loss to the state.

The charges, filed under Sections 23(1) and 179A(3)(a) of the Criminal Offences Act, 1960 (Act 29), are linked to a $2 million payment made in 2019 to Africa Investor Holdings Limited for the development of an urban Sky Train system in Accra—a project that never came to fruition.

Court documents reveal that the funds were released in February 2019 without proper board authorization for either the share acquisition or the disbursement. As the funds belonged to GIIF, a state-owned entity, their unauthorized release has sparked legal action.

Investigations indicate that due process was not followed. Prof. Ameyaw-Akumfi, named as the second accused, told investigators in his caution statement that he approved the payment on the advice of the first accused, Solomon Asamoah, who served as Chief Executive Officer of GIIF at the time.

However, neither Ameyaw-Akumfi nor Asamoah has been able to explain the whereabouts of the funds.

Prof. Ameyaw-Akumfi was recently arrested in connection with the failed Sky Train agreement, which was initially touted as a transformative urban transport solution for Accra. The proposed elevated light rail system was intended to ease traffic congestion in the capital and other major cities.

The project was to be executed through a public-private partnership between the Government of Ghana and Africa Investment (PTY) Limited, a South Africa-based firm that was expected to provide funding, technology, and infrastructure. Despite the substantial initial payment, the project never advanced beyond the planning stage.
