A Koforidua based Prophet is claiming to have developed a cure for COVID-19.
According to Prophet Samuel Asante Agyepong, Founder of the All Christians Prayer Ministry in Koforidua, Eastern regional capital, his herbal medicine prepared under the direction of God has the potency to cure persons infected with the coronavirus.
He said the efficacy of the herbal medicine has helped to improve the health status of some persons infected with the virus at his prayer camp.
According to him, his cure is rooted in the belief that there is a higher power that has some level of influence on human health.
“Lots of people come to me for prayer if they’re not feeling well. I pray for them and give them my herbal medicine after which they become healthy. Later they confide that they were infected with the coronavirus. so many people with coronavirus have been healed with this herbal medicine but I didn’t want to go public with it for fear of condemnation and insult because I am not a pharmacist but the Lord told me that this is the cure of Coronavirus reason I am coming public.”
Speaking to the media in Koforidua, Prophet Asante Agyepong said he is willing to produce in large quantities of his herbal concoction to treat affected persons when approved by regulatory authorities.
