Prophet Nicholas Osei, popularly known as Kumchacha, has issued a public warning to Kojo Bamba, the newly elected NPP First Vice Chairman, claiming a spiritual vision has revealed that Bamba faces a poisoning threat. Kumchacha, the founder and leader of Heaven's Gate Ministry, made the revelation during a radio interview on October 6, 2026, on Asempa FM. He urged Bamba to exercise extreme caution over anything he eats, drinks or consumes.

According to Kumchacha, the threat to Bamba's life does not originate from any of the candidates he defeated during the NPP's internal elections. Instead, he pointed to individuals outside the contest who, he alleged, are displeased with Bamba's current position within the party. Kumchacha emphasized that the danger is real and should not be taken lightly, as he rarely makes such specific pronouncements.

Kumchacha's warning comes after Bamba's victory at the NPP's National Delegates Conference, held at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi on October 3, 2026. Bamba secured 3,116 votes to emerge victorious against a competitive field of 12 other candidates. His election to the position of First Vice Chairman has drawn considerable attention within Ghanaian political circles.

The prophet was emphatic that Bamba should be careful with what he consumes, as the alleged plot is a serious threat to his life. Kumchacha added that he is serious about his statement, as he does not often make such prophecies. He therefore urged Bamba to take the necessary precautions to ensure his safety.

Kojo Bamba's victory at the NPP National Delegates Conference was a significant achievement, as he contested against notable figures, including Dr Mustapha Abdul-Hameed, Nana Akomea, and Samuel Pyne. His election as First Vice Chairman is seen as a major boost to his political career.

Kumchacha's ministry has been a subject of controversy in the past, with some critics questioning the authenticity of his prophecies. However, his warnings have also been taken seriously by some Ghanaians, who believe in the power of prophecy. In this case, Kumchacha's warning to Bamba has sparked a mix of reactions, with some calling for caution and others dismissing the prophecy as unfounded.

The NPP has yet to comment on Kumchacha's warning, but Bamba's supporters have expressed concern for his safety. As the party prepares for future elections, the alleged threat to Bamba's life has raised questions about the level of security provided to party officials. The incident has also sparked a national conversation about the role of prophecy in Ghanaian politics.
