The Managing Editor of the Insight newspaper, Kwesi Pratt Jnr says there is no longer a need to pray for God to deliver the country from the coronavirus pandemic because God has already answered.
He said God has already given answers to the numerous prayers and that to continue praying will be an act of ingratitude.
Mr Pratt who was commenting on the coronavirus pandemic on Peace FM's 'Kokrokoo' programme indicated: "We are often told to go and pray, but as for the prayers we have done that and God has already listened. It is now left with what we can do to make the virus go away; we’ve passed the stage of prayer".
"God has given us scientists and other doctors; is that not an answer to our prayers? Science is already an answer from God, and that is where we need to look at otherwise we are being ungrateful to God. Let's work with science," he urged.

Mr. Pratt, has anybody stopped the doctors and scientist from doing their work to produce a vaccine for this virus. Has the research centers and laboratories been turned to a prayer hall? I am so surprised you will say a thing like this. Do you really listen to the news from Italy, Spain and the U.S.A? Is it because they are praying that is why the death rate is so high? Kwesi repent.
May GOD forgive you
Kwesi, do not force your beliefs on us. Frontline workers in the heavily-infected countries are on their knees praying daily. When will this infant grow up?
we all believe in a higher power- a higher power that gave the western world the wisdom to come up with vaccines. Please someone convince me we Ghanaians or Africans have a different higher power to look up to? Prayers don't create vaccines, they give us the wisdom to great them. After all our all day prayers and tongues speaking where has it lead us? The LORD that we serve is a good of WISDOM, HE doesn't work magic. Africans and Ghanaians let us think kakraa wai. God bless us all.
Kwesi is not my fan but with his accession on this matter i gree with him. God has answered our prayers way back. The creator knew he cannot be there to solve our problems like father-son, doctor-patient, judge-criminal, driver-passenger etc. He impacted numerous knowledge in us to explore and solve those confronting problems. Now why then we turn round disturbing God for solutions. Think about that.God bless us all
even the scientists are praying, what is this anti Christ talking about?
You are about 70 years of age and you continue to talk like this. What a pity.
Kwasi,I am so sorry for you. If you have gone past prayer, stay in you "corner" and enjoy your sticks. Spain and Italy with all their scientific advancements are still dying and are crying to God in prayer.No one is down playing the role of science, however, Divine intervention is VERY key in this situation. Until Science is able to manufacture Blood like paracetamol is manufactured and Science prove the exact day a person dies, the God fact remains indispensable. Drop the sticks and pray man
