Popular Ghanaian pastor, Prophet Opambour, widely known as “Prophet 1,” has expressed his displeasure over recent comments made by media personality Okatakyie Afrifa. The clergyman, known for his fiery sermons and spiritual declarations, has vowed to prove his power following Afrifa’s public remarks questioning his spiritual authority.
The controversy began when Okatakyie Afrifa openly criticized Prophet Opambour, alleging that the pastor was not as powerful as he claims. Afrifa reportedly dismissed Opambour’s spiritual prowess and urged journalist Vim Lady not to be bothered by the curses pronounced by the pastor, as they, according to Afrifa, “would go nowhere.”
In a heated response during one of his broadcasts, Opambour refuted Afrifa’s claims, stating that he does not make statements lightly or without backing. The pastor warned Afrifa not to undermine him, asserting that his spiritual abilities are not to be taken for granted.
“Let him dare me, and I will show him who I am,” Opambour declared. He further claimed that he could destroy Afrifa’s life if provoked. In a dramatic assertion, the pastor stated that if he fails to make good on his threat, he is willing to have his head cut off as proof of his sincerity.
This escalating feud between the religious leader and the outspoken media personality has sparked conversations on social media and within Ghanaian communities. While some supporters of Opambour believe that Afrifa’s comments were disrespectful and provocative, others argue that a man of God should exercise restraint and focus on promoting peace and reconciliation.
Prophet Opambour is no stranger to controversy, having been involved in similar confrontations in the past with other public figures. His followers, however, remain steadfast in their belief in his spiritual authority, often pointing to his long-standing role in Ghana’s religious landscape.
On the other hand, Okatakyie Afrifa, known for his bold and sometimes controversial opinions, continues to stand by his statements. He has not issued any further response to Opambour’s warnings, leaving the public to speculate whether he will address the matter or let it rest.
The ongoing dispute highlights the growing tension between some religious leaders and media figures in Ghana, as both parties often command significant influence and public attention. As the situation unfolds, many are calling for calm and mutual respect to resolve the matter without further escalation.
In the meantime, Ghanaians are watching closely to see if this feud will fizzle out or intensify further, as both men remain firm in their respective positions.
