In early August, Prophet Roja posted a video urging Dr Omane Boamah to contact him urgently, without providing details.
Shortly after, the minister died in a military helicopter crash along with seven others.
Before this, Prophet Roja had prophesied a domestic plane crash on July 29, urging residents to pray to avert the tragedy.
Following the crash, his videos went viral, drawing both praise for apparent foresight and criticism from religious leaders, who accused him of spreading fear.
Captain Smart defends Roja over Boamah propechy
Speaking on the development, Captain Smart noted that the prophet did his part by asking for the Minister to react to him.
He questioned if the man of God disrespected anyone with his remarks and seemed surprised that no one close to the Minister drew his attention to the preacher's call.
Captain Smart added that life is spiritual and that spiritual matters should be taken seriously.
"So when the Prophet asked the late Minister to contact him, is everyone trying to tell me that no one knew Omane Boamah? Why are you attacking the said prophet now? Who did he insult? What wrong did he do? So why are we attacking him now? Something we think we are literates but life is spiritual, whether you believe it or not," he said.

A popular one was made by Prophet Roja, who directed the late Minister to contact him a few weeks before his tragic demise.
Other videos of prophecies about the incident have emerged after the incident.
He recently indicated in an interview that his main reason for wanting to meet the late Dr. Omane Boamah was to tell him to stay home for a month, due to a vision he had about him.
