Joseph Yamin, Former Deputy Coordinator - NADMO

I’ll walk out of church anytime Rev. Martey stands in front of the pulpit – Yami
The Former Deputy Coordinator of National Disaster
Management Organisation (NADMO) Joseph Yamin has
threatened to walk out of church anytime the
former Presbyterian Moderator Rev. Prof. Emmanuel
Martey stands in front of the pulpit to preach to
a congregation he happens to be part.

He said though he is a Presbyterian, he will never
listen to the preaching of his former moderator
because his preaching is not based on nationalism
but attacks on the opposition National Democratic
Congress (NDC).

Some members of NDC have accused the former
moderator of hitting hard at the NDC without
recourse.

According to Mr Yamin, Rev. Martey and some
renowned pastors such as the head pastor of
International Central Gospel Church (ICGC) Pastor
Mensah Otabil have been painting the NDC black in
their preaching.

Speaking on Abusua FM’s Abusua Nkommo hosted by
Kwame Adinkra, Mr Yamin further accused the former
Moderator of developing intense hatred for the
former President John Dramani Mahama during the
electioneering.

He stated that he has no qualms people visiting
these pastors’ churches but will never go to
their churches to worship God.

He described them as politicians in pastoral
clothes.

‘They should tell Ghanaians that they made wrong
submissions. They made us believed that prayers
couldn’t solve any problem. I will not visit Rev
Owusu Bempeh’s church, neither will I go to
Pastor Otabil’s church or listen to his
preaching. I have never listened to him before, I
always hear his preaching from third parties. I am
a Presbyterian but I don’t listen to Rev.
Emmanuel Martey’s preaching. I will walk out if
he stands in front of the pulpit to preach,
because his preaching will be based on NPP and not
nationalism, they have taken on political attire.

The respected man of God Pastor Mensa Otabil said
prayers couldn’t solve Ghana’s problems, and
Rev. Owusu Bimpeh is now saying that they prayed
for Nana Addo to win power, why couldn’t that
same God help change the fortunes of the country
during Mahama’s administration?. Its sheer
hatred for John Mahama. Owusu Bimpeh had confirmed
today that he and the other pastors don’t like
John Mahama,’ he fumed.

The former deputy coordinator of NADMO said men of
God are role models who should lead exemplary
lives for others to follow than wearing political
party colours.

He remarked that he admires the Chairman of the
National Peace Council Rev. Emmanuel Asante saying
it’s difficult for one to tell where his
political affiliation when he is preaching or
granting media interviews.
