Reverend Eastwood Anaba, the President of Eastwood Anaba Ministries, has said conflicts that occur between communities, tribes and individuals in the North were as result of spiritual manipulations.

He explained that when there was peace among individuals, demonic spirits assumed control and established themselves to disintegrate the peace by initiating disagreements, misunderstandings and paving the way for war.

Reverend Anaba, who is Founder of the Fountain Gate Chapel, was speaking at the closing ceremony of a three-day conference organised by the Chapel, in Tamale, on the theme: “Purpose, Luke 4:18-19”.

He said “in this part of the country, when there is peace, the devil knows and just destroys it”

“That is why you sometimes see your brother or sister, and you do not feel like talking to him or her, it is not normal because a spirit is behind that”, he said.

He said situations, where people got angry at their fellow human beings without any reasons was also the doing of the devil.

Reverend Anaba prophesied that God had relieved the regions of the demonic manipulations, and said peace and unity would continue to prevail among individuals.

He advised the congregation to abide by the doctrines of the Christian faith in order to see the glory of God.
