Addressing worshippers during a church service on Sunday, February 1, Prophet Nelson-Eshun said he could not control how individuals reacted to recent developments but emphasised that he had not abandoned his ministry.

He explained that his decision was guided by humility and responsibility, noting the importance of openly addressing the unfulfilled prophecy before the end of the service.

Prophet Nelson-Eshun anchored his remarks on his book, School of Prophecy, specifically Chapter 16, titled “When a Prophet Misses It.”

He said the chapter outlines the appropriate response when a prophetic word does not come to pass.

According to him, the book was written several years ago and released in 2025, clearly outlining principles of accountability and integrity in ministry.

He further stated that in moments such as this, he does not seek encouragement from church members but rather accountability, stressing the need for responsibility in prophetic ministry.

Ahead of the NPP presidential primary election, Prophet and author Bernard Elbernard Nelson-Eshun had prophesied that former Assin Central MP, Kennedy Agyapong would win the contest, however the prophesy didn't come to pass.
