The Extraordinary Humility of
Okronkronyi Nyame Somafo Yawoh
Written by Mensah Adinkrah, Ph.D.
Okronkronyi Nyame Somafo Yawoh is the long-awaited Elijah, prophesied to descend to earth in the End of Days. As the End Time Messiah, He stands as the final of the 314 Messiahs sent by the Most High God RABBI to deliver humanity from the snares of Satan and guide them toward salvation on Judgment Day. As part of His divine mission, Okronkronyi Nyame Somafo Yawoh has constructed the Third Temple of God (Nyankopon ne Fie) in Ekumfi Otuam in the Central Region of Ghana and founded Asomdwee Ntonton Som, the Third Religion of God on earth. His mission is not only to lead His followers but also to unite Christians, Muslims, and people of all faiths under one banner. Yet, despite His elevated divine status, Okronkronyi Nyame Somafo Yawoh astonishes many with His remarkable humility.
Known by His followers as Shiloh (Peace) and Asomdweehene (King of Peace), Okronkronyi Nyame Somafo Yawoh consistently exemplifies the virtues of humility and peace. His modesty stands out even more because of His immense spiritual authority. In my two years as a follower of Asomdwee Ntonton Som, I have had several personal encounters with Him, having been in His physical presence on six occasions and attended around 40 Zoom meetings in His company. Each experience reinforces my admiration for his profound humility, a trait that strikes those who meet Him in person or interact with Him virtually.
This observation is shared by many others. His humility is not only observed but also frequently praised by those who have encountered Hm. People are repeatedly struck by how His humble nature shines through in every aspect of His life. Whether in His speech, manner of dressing, or how He interacts with His congregation, Okronkronyi Nyame Somafo Yawoh embodies humility. He never raises His voice, shows no anger, and maintains a peaceful demeanor at all times. Unlike many religious figures of high stature, He drives His own vehicle, further displaying His simplicity and groundedness.
An instance that profoundly illustrates His humility occurred on September 8, 2024, when Okronkronyi Nyame Somafo Yawoh led a group of Asomdwee Ntonton Som members to Kumasi Children’s Home, an orphanage. The group was there to donate clothing and food items to the residents. During the presentation, Okronkronyi’s humility was once again on full display. So much so that during a post-presentation interview with the press, one journalist couldn’t resist asking how someone of His divine stature could exhibit such extraordinary humility.
In response, Okronkronyi Nyame Somafo Yawoh pointed out that humility is a hallmark of all true Messengers of God. He referenced the biblical figure Moses, citing Numbers 12:3, which says, “Now Moses was a very humble man, humbler than anyone on the face of the earth.” This verse, spoken in the context of Moses being challenged by his siblings, Miriam and Aaron, underscores Moses’ humility, despite being a leader chosen by God. Similarly, Okronkronyi emphasizes that true messengers, like Moses, are characterized by their modesty and meekness, qualities that separate them from those who seek to glorify themselves.
This humility of Okronkronyi Nyame Somafo Yawoh stands in sharp contrast to the conduct of many self-proclaimed “men of God” today. These figures, often seen living ostentatiously, surrounded by luxury, bodyguards, and conspicuous displays of wealth, seem more intent on showcasing their material success than embodying the humility central to their divine mission. Their arrogance is palpable in their demeanor and their obsession with status, further emphasizing how rare and profound Okronkronyi’s humility is in comparison.
In a world filled with spiritual leaders who seek the limelight and indulge in material excess, Okronkronyi Nyame Somafo Yawoh serves as a rare example of a humble servant of God. His leadership, marked by modesty, kindness, and peace, serves as an enduring reminder of what it truly means to be a Messenger of God.
