IGP Dampare attempted to inject me to death – Owusu-Bempah alleges

Speaking to his congregation on Sunday, September 22, 2024, Rev. Owusu-Bempah claimed that masked police officers attempted to inject him with a lethal substance while he was in custody, an action he says he fought off.
Reverend Isaac Owusu-Bempah, founder and leader of Glorious Word Power Ministry International, has made serious allegations against the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Dr. George Akuffo Dampare, accusing him of orchestrating a plot to take his life during his 2021 arrest.

Speaking to his congregation on Sunday, September 22, 2024, Rev. Owusu-Bempah claimed that masked police officers attempted to inject him with a lethal substance while he was in custody, an action he says he fought off.

“Why do NPP members keep insulting me? What wrong have I done them?” he asked his congregation. “You made the IGP arrest me and wanted to kill me; the IGP was going to kill me. Do you know the IGP was going to kill me? He was going to inject me to death, and Nana Akufo-Addo did nothing to him. He hasn’t been questioned on who the police officers that came for me deep in the night were,” he asserted.

According to Rev. Owusu-Bempah, eight masked officers arrived to retrieve him from his cell. He recounted how he was placed in a pickup truck, handcuffed between officers, when one of them attempted to inject him. “One of them sitting in front brought out a syringe and wanted to inject me… I held it tight, leading to a struggle, and as a result, the syringe broke. I kept shouting for those in the cells to hear me,” he said.

He further explained that his brother and junior pastors were instructed to monitor his situation while he remained in detention. In a startling revelation, Rev. Owusu-Bempah claimed that a search at the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA) revealed that the registration number on the pickup truck used by the police traced back to an old Honda Accord.

“Do you know that our search at DVLA revealed that the number on the pickup belonged to an old Honda Accord? I am told that is the car that Dampare uses to pick people up and kill them. Dampare wants to kill me; can you, Dampare, kill me?” he questioned.

Rev. Owusu-Bempah also recalled an encounter with former NPP General Secretary John Boadu during his arrest. “When I was being sent to the cells, John Boadu came there, and I asked him why they were treating me like that. He told me I shouldn’t be worried and that something would be done about it the next day.”

He added that he reached out to NPP’s Ashanti Regional Chairman, Bernard Antwi Boasiako (Chairman Wontumi), who explained that the party leaders were angry with him and suggested that only Rev. Victor Kusi Boateng could secure his release.

Although Rev. Owusu-Bempah was detained for four days, he stated that he forgave those involved after they sought his pardon. However, he expressed frustration that the party continues to allow radio attacks and false allegations to be spread about him, including accusations of conspiring with religious leaders like Stephen Wingam of the Assemblies of God Church.

In a stern warning to the New Patriotic Party (NPP), he urged them to cease the attacks against him, cautioning that their actions could have negative consequences for the party in the upcoming elections. “Don’t you know we are in an election year? Don’t you know God brought you to power through me in 2016 and 2020?” he questioned.
