“We are humans just like everybody else. We do not possess special powers or have secret gods we worship; and being a Freemason does not give money, power or fame,” he said on Thursday, January 24, 2019, at the launch of the group’s 10th anniversary at the Kempinski Hotel in Accra.

The Chairman of the Grand Lodge Masonic Education Committee, Right Worshipful, Abraham Gyasi also speaking in an interview added that the group was rather into philanthropy.

“The misconceptions you have been hearing, they are not true, we don’t kill other people, we don’t drink blood, we are not an occult organization but an organization of very decent and respectable men,” Right Worshipful Gyasi explained to the GraphicOnline in an interview.

Speaking further on the matter, Right Worshipful Gyasi stressed to cautioned the public against the operation of groups which pretended as Freemasons, guaranteeing wealth and power in exchange for certain sacrifices.

“Recently, films and banners with false promises of strange imaginary powers and benefit of being a freemason have been published by unscrupulous people to deceive the general public. Being a Freemason will not give any member money, power, fame, and fortune. Freemasonry is not involved in politics and religion,” he emphasized.
