Have a look at the other entries in the .rtp file, and notice how the formatting
of the GTP molecule you entered looks nothing like the others.  Use the format
of other residues to guide you (paying special attention to similar molecules,
like ATP, which is already a part of ffG43a1).  The information in the file you
found appears to be in a different format, although you may still be able to
extract information from it.

Alternatively, you could use the PRODRG beta server to generate a
suitably-formatted topology (which you can include as an .itp file in your
system topology).  However, this topology will require editting, as some of the
parameters (most notably charges) will likely be unsatisfactory.
