On Saturday, October 6, 2024, the streets of Kumasi in the Ashanti region were transformed into a vibrant showcase of faith and hope as residents congregated for an extraordinary religious event known as the “Out of Bondage Walk.”
Organized by Asomdwee Ntonton Som (Nkabom) and led by the dynamic Nyame Somafo Yawoh, this inspiring event served as both a spiritual awakening and a healing crusade for the local community.
Headquartered in Ekumfi Otuam, in the Central Region of Ghana, Asomdwee Ntonton Som (Nkabom) aims to spread the message of God’s love and healing power.
According to Nyame Somafo Yawoh, the primary goal of the Walk was twofold: to introduce the church to the people of Kumasi and to provide healing for those who are sick or suffering.
With an ethos rooted in worship, prayer, and joyous singing, the day’s events were a testament to the faith that unites the members of the church and the community they serve.
In an exclusive interview with the media, Nyame Somafo Yawoh characterized himself as a “latter-day Messiah,” emphasizing his unique approach to healing.
Unlike some pastors who may employ oils or other materials, Yawoh asserted that his healing comes directly from his faith in the Holy Spirit and fire baptism.
He challenged the conventional practices of other spiritual leaders, referring to them as “fake” and accusing them of serving their own interests rather than those of their congregants.
“I heal without medicine,” he declared, urging those struggling with various challenges—be it marital issues, infertility, or financial woes—to seek liberation through faith in Christ.
As the Walk commenced, an enthusiastic crowd gathered, brandishing placards with messages of hope and affirmation such as “The Real Messiah Has Come,” “True Healing Awaits You,” and “Set Yourselves Free from Your Problems.”
The atmosphere was electric, resonating with chants and the collective spirit of those seeking solace and healing.
The procession led the participants through some of Kumasi’s busiest streets, including Bantama, Astown, and Tafo, symbolizing a powerful march toward liberation and divine intervention.
The gathering culminated at the Kumasi Culture Center, where the energy intensified as Nyame Somafo Yawoh took the stage.
Addressing the congregation, Yawoh invited the troubled and afflicted to come forward for healing.
“The Faith healer will speak and set you free,” he proclaimed, radiating an aura of assurance and faith that resonated with the audience.
Families with various ailments and personal struggles came forward, hopeful for miracles to manifest through Yawoh’s intercession.
During the climactic moments of the event, Yawoh laid hands on attendees, reportedly healing numerous ailments in a display of faith and divine power.
He reassured the congregation to trust in God rather than in pastors whom he deemed powerless to effect real change.
The “Out of Bondage Walk” not only served as a platform for spiritual healing but also reinforced the sense of community among the people of Kumasi.
Nyame Somafo Yawoh’s message of faith, hope, and divine healing reminds us all of the power of spirituality to transcend personal struggles and bind communities together in shared belief.
As the sun set on October 6, the residents of Kumasi were left inspired and invigorated, their spirits kindled by the presence of Nyame Somafo Yawoh and the promise of a new beginning through faith.
The event marked a significant chapter in the tapestry of religious expression in Ghana, paving the way for more such transformative experiences in the future.
