National Blood Service Disappointed In Evangelist Addai For Ritual Sacrifice Allegations

National Blood Service responds to Addai Emmanuel. Furthermore, Emmanuel Addai is a prophet who accused Despite CEO of using blood for rituals. Moreover, this was the blood donated at his health-fair.

Also, he stated that Dr. Osei Kwame Despite lured innocent citizens into donating blood. Therefore, these allegations came to the notice of the National Blood Service (NBS). They expressed their shock and disappointment that such a well-meaning endeavor could be so unfortunately misconstrued. Therefore, they released a statement to address these concerns.

National Blood Service about damning allegations against Despite by Prophet Addai

“The National Blood Service (NBS) note with deep shock and utter disappointment video and audio recordings by one Evangelist Emmanuel Addai making rounds in certain social media circles alleging that blood donated by voluntary blood donors during community blood donation drives organised by the Despite Group of Companies are used for rituals by Dr. (H.C) Osei Kwame Despite. The assertions by the said Evangelist that the blood collected from voluntary blood donors who patronise such blood donation drives do not get to hospitals are uninformed and portrays a lack of understanding of blood donation process. The NBS wishes to state emphatically that these assertions by the said Evangelist Addai on the recordings are palpably false, baseless and most regrettable”.

Furthermore, the NBS calls on the general public to ignore these preposterous claims by the so-called Evangelist. This is because it is out of pure ignorance.

“Over the past few years, the Despite Group of Companies has consistently supported the NBS in its efforts to meet the national blood requirements. The NBS appreciates the enormous contributions of the Despite Group of Companies and other corporate organizations, religious bodies, educational institutions and organized community groups towards the steady growth of voluntary blood donation in Ghana.

We urge our partners to remain committed to the noble objective of saving lives through blood donation… Regular voluntary unpaid blood donors are recognised globally. This is because it is the safest source of blood for transfusion. Also, it is the surest way to provide and sustain adequate blood supply. The WHO recommends that regular blood donation by 1% of the population. This is to meet the minimum national blood requirement. However, Ghana’s blood supply currently relies heavily on replacement donations by family and friends of patients who require blood transfusion therapy”.
