In the heated and unpredictable race for the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) presidential primaries, where political analysts, party insiders, and influential voices offered conflicting forecasts, one prediction stood out—clear, bold, and ultimately fulfilled.
Ghanaian clergyman and founder of Reign House Chapel, Prophet Eric Boahen Uche, emerged as one of the very first public figures to accurately predict the victory of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, long before momentum firmly tilted in his favour.
During a church service few weeks ahead of the primaries, Prophet Uche declared that Dr. Bawumia would not only win but would secure between 56 and 57 per cent of the total votes cast.
At the time, the prophecy was met with scepticism, especially given the intensity of the contest and the strong grassroots enthusiasm surrounding other contenders—particularly outspoken former Assin Central MP Kennedy Agyapong, who enjoyed massive support among party foot soldiers.
However, when ballots were finally counted and results officially declared, Dr. Bawumia won decisively, securing a commanding majority well within the margin Prophet Uche had publicly foretold—a development that has since sparked widespread discussion across political and religious spaces.
A prophecy that defied the odds
What makes Prophet Eric Boahen Uche’s prediction particularly striking is the political climate at the time it was made.
The NPP race was widely described as open-ended, with analysts divided and many prominent religious figures predicting victories for rival candidates—predictions that ultimately failed to materialise.
Despite the noisy campaign environment, shifting alliances, and aggressive messaging from all camps, Prophet Uche’s prophecy remained consistent and unambiguous, earning it recognition as one of the most accurate and unprecedented political prophecies linked to the NPP presidential primary cycle so far.
Political observers note that even seasoned commentators hesitated to project such a clear margin of victory, making the precision of the prophecy all the more remarkable.
Who is Prophet Eric Boahen Uche?
Prophet Eric Boahen Uche is the founder and leader of Reign House Chapel, a fast-growing Christian ministry known for its emphasis on prayer, spiritual discipline, and national intercession.
Over the years, he has built a reputation as a calm but firm prophetic voice, often steering clear of the sensationalism that characterises much of Ghana’s prophecy landscape.
Unlike some self-styled prophets who release multiple, contradictory political predictions, Prophet Uche is known for restraint—speaking only when he claims to have clear spiritual conviction. Members of his congregation describe him as deeply prayer-oriented, with a strong focus on leadership, governance, and national destiny.
Though not overtly partisan, Prophet Uche has on several occasions emphasised the need for visionary leadership, economic stability, and peace—values he has often linked to his prayers for Ghana’s future.
Rising credibility in the public eye
Following the outcome of the NPP primaries, Prophet Eric Boahen Uche’s name has gained renewed attention, with many Ghanaians pointing to his prediction as evidence of spiritual insight at a time when political certainty was scarce.
As Ghana inches closer to the 2026 general elections, his fulfilled prophecy has positioned him as a clergyman whose words are now being watched more closely—not just by congregants, but by political observers as well.
Whether one views the event through a spiritual or political lens, one fact remains undeniable: Prophet Eric Boahen Uche called the race early—and got it right.
