A Ghanaian pastor identified only as Razak has boldly claimed he has the divine power to resurrect all eight victims of the August 6 helicopter crash.
Speaking to reporters shortly after the interdenominational state funeral on Friday, August 15, 2025, Pastor Razak said, “If they give me the chance, I will raise all of them from the dead for the glory of God. I have the grace and the favour to do this.”
The self-assured clergyman, who spoke in Twi, insisted that the condition of the bodies would not be an obstacle. “Even if they are burned, I can still bring them back to life. Nothing is impossible for God,” he declared in a video sighted by Ghbase News.
The tragic crash, involving a Ghana Air Force Z-9 helicopter, occurred at Adansi Akrofuom in the Ashanti Region as the passengers were heading to Obuasi for the launch of the Responsible Community and Cooperative Mining Programme.
