Managing Editor of the Insight newspaper, Kwesi Pratt Jnr has accused the general overseer of International Central Gospel Church (ICGC) of being anti-NDC.

According to him, Pastor Mensah Otabil’s utterances about the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) over the years are indicative that he is “anti-NDC, anti-Mahama, and anti-anything which is not NPP.”

Pastor Otabil has come under attack from some members of the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) after he asked Ghanaians to demand better things from government.

Some NDC members have described him as a threat to national security and have also accused him of doing the bidding of the main opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP).

Contributing to a panel discussion on Radio Gold, Mr. Pratt Jnr stated that over the years, “it has been obvious that over the past so many years, Mensah Otabil has deliberately taken a political stance.”

He remarked that the submissions of Pastor Otabil are “not different from what Mike Ocquaye Jnr says and therefore, we all have a responsibility to examine what these so called men of God say.”

“All of them are self-acclaimed! They all claim that they are men of God; a claim which all of us can make. My goodness! We should be careful.”

Mr. Pratt Jnr said it is the duty of governments to provide potable water, improve access to education and improve national infrastructure and thus challenged Mensah Otabil to enumerate things the government should do for the people of Ghana if what they have already done are minimal.

“What are those things? Mensah Otabil should tell us!” he fumed.

He added that “anytime these self-acclaimed men of God go out there and make statements which have no empirical basis, statements which have no logical value, some of the members of their congregation come out to say that ‘who are you to criticize them because they have achieved so much.”
