A video sighted by YEN.com.gh on the TikTok page of @deprincegh showed Prophet Uche addressing congregants of his church, where he emphatically stated that some seats in Parliament were going to become vacant.
Speaking proverbially, he stated that he foresaw ongoing by-elections in some seats, adding that certain MPs who had won their seats after disputes failed to handle spiritual matters properly, and were thus going to lose them.
"I saw we were doing by-elections. I saw some seats being vacant. I saw that those who had come to Parliament, there were ongoing by-elections. I am speaking proverbially. The seats which had already been taken — we were voting over those seats again. The wise should listen to what I am saying. So let’s pray for our Parliament House, that every spirit that has been sent to the House..." Prophet Uche told his church members.
He then alleged that some MPs who won their seats after consulting some spiritualists, but failed to show appreciation would also lose their seats.
"Some people have won seats, but looking at how they won them spiritually, they should go back and do certain things. But they refused to do them because of power. What follows afterwards? Their seats will be vacant."

The Electoral Commission already announced there would be a by-election in the Ablekuma North Constituency in the Greater Accra Region at 19 polling stations.
Prophet Uche's prophecies
The General Overseer of Reign House Chapel has never shied away from speaking about impending events, often stirring controversy in the process.

His prophecy gained attention after the Vatican, on Monday, April 21, 2025, announced that Pope Francis had passed away.
Bawumia mourns Ernest Kumi
Former Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has also visited the family of the late Ernest Kumi to sympathise with them on their loss.
Addressing the family on Tuesday, July 9, Dr. Bawumia described Ernest Yaw Kumi as one of the key people in Parliament who supported him, expressing deep sorrow over his passing.
“Ernest was my friend, and I have always supported him—even during his election as MP for Akwatia. Nobody in Parliament supports me more than Ernest; he has always supported me.Just this past Friday, I was with him at my house, and we had a good chat. Hearing this beats my mind because, on that day, nothing about him showed that he was ill or sick. I am still struggling to wrap my head around the fact that he has passed.”
Although details of the exact cause of death remain unknown, the brother of the late MP said he died at Lister Hospital on July 7.
This came after he complained of severe chest pain. Despite efforts to stabilise his condition, he sadly passed away.

Members of Parliament have also expressed sadness over the sudden demise of their late colleague.
To support the bereaved family, the MPs paid a condolence visit to the home of the late Ernest Yaw Kumi during these difficult moments.
The delegation was led by both the Majority and Minority Leaders—Mahama Ayariga and Alexander Afenyo-Markin.
