Is TB Joshua Atta Mills Mentor?

With President Obama’s visit to Ghana, the news of TB Joshua’s close relationship with President Mills has spread like wildfire, many people attributing Ghana’s success to spiritual intervention. Another article in Ghana Mma dwells on the closeness between the president and the prophet, and the positive results Ghana is seeing as a result…

Obama In Ghana!

Obama’s recent visit to Ghana has put Ghana at the forefront of world media news. Before the U.S. President’s arrival, the excitement and expectation of Ghanaians were held high. However, with the constant heavy rainfall the country was having for several days leading up to the US president’s arrival, it seemed as though the well planned preparations of Ghanaians would be blighted. Many Ghanaians pondered the thought as to whether their hopes of a perfect Ghanaian welcome would be ‘drowned’ in disappointment. But all hope was not lost and in fact the situation was perfectly under control, at least as far as the Ghanaian President Atta Mills was concerned. One inside source claims that T.B. Joshua of The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations specifically prayed concerning the rain and that President Atta Mills was assured by T.B. Joshua, that the rain would stop before the US president’s plane lands in Ghana.

Was it divine intervention that the rain stopped just shortly before Obama’s plane landed? Was it the prayer of T.B. Joshua that halted the rain or just mere chance? This is the topic of much debate. One person I spoke to said, “Yes, I believe T.B. Joshua’s prayer was paramount to the rain stopping. The man seems to have divine connection”. Another person stated, “I heard it on the grapevine that T.B. Joshua was actually in Ghana at the time of Obama’s visit but I don’t know much about the rain issue”. An inside source confirmed that T.B. Joshua was actually in Ghana during Obama’s visit but was unable to give any further information.

The question many may be asking is, what could a professor of law and indeed a president of a nation have in common with someone with no educational accolades? What could be the common thread that ‘yarned’ the President of Ghana, John Atta Mills and T.B. Joshua together? What is considered an uncommon combination has sparked media interest. Some speculate that it was T.B. Joshua’s accurate prophecy concerning the outcome of the recent Ghanaian election that ignited the relationship but according to Atta Mills, the genesis of their relationship stemmed as far back as ten years ago. In Atta Mills own words, “I’ve known the man of God for more than ten years. Indeed, I first met him when I was the Vice President of the Republic of Ghana and I’ve continued to maintain the relationship ever since”. President Atta Mills has even gone as far as publically proclaiming that T.B Joshua is his mentor. A mentor is someone who is capable of growing and increasing one’s life – a guide, a counsellor. How could a president of a nation who is also a professor of law sit and learn at the feet of a prophet? The answer can only be summed up in one simple word…humility.
