Mr. Joseph Arthur who doubles as Headteacher of Emeralds Premier School, highlighted Prophet Aha’s 25 years of exceptional spiritual and humanitarian work, emphasizing his commitment to preaching, church planting, and community development..
He revealed that Prophet Aha’s journey from a secondary school student to a prominent spiritual leader reflects his commitment, resilience, and dedication, noting that he used his school fees to support ministry work and evangelized across multiple towns both during and after his secondary education.
He also spoke about Prophet Aha’s strong leadership, generosity, and work in training church leaders, helping vulnerable people, and promoting education and development in Sefwi Asawinso and across the Western North Region.
Mr. Joseph Arthur pointed out Prophet Aha’s studies and work with the Hebrew University of Jerusalem as proof of his learning and forward-thinking leadership.

He praised International Kingdom University for recognizing a 21st-century leader of impact and called on the institution to continue fostering opportunities for committed leaders from Ghana’s hinterlands.
Mr. Arthur Joseph urged Prophet Aha to use the honour to further his transformative leadership and Christ-centered legacy.
In his acceptance speech, Prophet Dr. Wisdom Aha stated that the honour is not his alone but belongs to his people, community, and God, emphasizing that leadership is about vision, sacrifice, and lifting others rather than titles or positions.
Prophet Dr. Aha reflected on his journey from humble beginnings in Sefwi Asawinso, acknowledging that every challenge and victory has been guided by divine providence. He cited Psalm 118:23, saying: “This is the LORD’s doing; it is marvelous in our eyes.”
He described the recognition as a beginning rather than an end, renewing his commitment to advance humanity, foster peace, and defend the vulnerable.
Addressing the next generation, Prophet Dr. Aha said greatness is measured not by accumulation or status but by the impact one has and how many lives one lifts while rising.
He dedicated the degree to all who believe in service, integrity, and the hope of a brighter tomorrow, praying that the honour inspires leadership that heals, empowers, and transforms.
He thanked all present and wished blessings on the institution and attendees, expressing hope for restoration for any losses incurred in attending the program.
