NIGHERIA: Prophet Ogyaba conducted a ritual to shave the dreadlocks of a young boy, aiming to protect him from spiritual possession.

The parents, concerned about their son’s well-being, brought him to the church fearing he might be under spiritual influence.

The boy was born at Mary-Lucy Hospital in Awoshie, Accra, already circumcised and adorned with dreadlocks.

Prophet Ogyaba clarified that the boy was innocent but born under the influence of spirits, with intentions for him to assume the role of the new Komfo Anokye, a respected spiritual figure.

He prayed and shaved the boy’s dreadlocks in an attempt to liberate him from the influence of the perceived spirits.

The prophet’s actions were recorded in a video shared below.
