There was shock and disbelief at the auditorium of the Hope Generation Ministry International located at Weija Oblogo Manchester in Accra when a tiny six year old boy openly claimed responsibility for the father�s unending financial woes, some unexplained deaths in the family as well as his (boy�s) own stunted growth. As if those revelations were not startling enough, he also confessed that he had brought a live snake (one of his powers) to the church premises but was forced by the Holy Spirit to let go of it at the entrance before he walked into the main auditorium with his father. Shocked by these unexpected turn of events, the middle aged father who had always seen the son as an innocent looking kid broke down into uncontrollable tears. Later, the �wizard kid� was delivered from the forces of darkness by the founder and leader of the church, Prophet Eric Kwesi Amponsah a.k.a Computer Man and his powerful prayer warriors. It all began when the boy�s father, a Kasoa based mechanic decided to seek answers to his financial woes as well as the son�s deteriorating health. He was thus directed to the Hope Generation Ministry where he joined last Tuesday�s counseling and deliverance service. As the service progressed, he bought a bottle of anointing oil which he gave the son to drink and also smeared some on his forehead, perhaps to ward off any evil spirit which was tormenting his boy. After the application of the oil, the little boy became uneasy and subsequently went outside several times under the pretext of urinating. Moments later, he confided in the father that he was a wizard who was responsible for the family�s woes and that he wanted to confess to the entire church so that he could be set free. Baffled by these revelations, the father ushered him to the dais where he openly confessed and was delivered. What shocked many in the auditorium at the time was the level of confidence and eloquence the boy exhibited as he made those unbelievable confessions.
