A former deputy National Coordinator for National Disaster Management Organisation (NADMO), Joseph Yamin, has revealed that even though he is a presbyter; he abhors the preaching of a former moderator of the church Reverend Professor Emmanuel Martey

He accused the man of God of dabbling in politics to the extent that his preachings are always centered on the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) and not about issues that will reform members of the church or affect the lives of the citizenry.

“I won’t go to Otabil, Owusu Bempah or to their Churches same as Reverend Martey. Reverend Martey won’t preach anything nationalistic but preaches NPP. I listen to the Methodist Bishop with the Peace Council when he preaches. It is difficult to know his stance and his preaching is inspiring”, he said.

Mr Yamin faulted the former Moderator of developing intense hatred for the former President John Dramani Mahama during the electioneering period.

He described them as politicians in cassocks

‘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.
