Prophet Ebenezer Adarkwah Yiadom, widely recognized as Opambour, who heads the Ebenezer Miracle Worship Centre, has issued a dire warning to gospel artist Jack Alolome for purportedly disrespecting his wife during a live radio broadcast.
Opambour has given Jack Alolome, alongside the management of Accra FM and the program’s host where the disrespectful remarks were aired, a deadline of one week to extend apologies for the disrespect shown. Failure to comply, he asserts, may result in invoking serious curses upon them.
“Let the owner of the station listen, I will curse you with the power of God, I will curse your work, I will curse your wife and I will curse your offspring with the power of God. Listen again, the host of the program, I will curse you with the power of God, I will curse your wife and curse your children. Everybody else in the studio, I will curse you and your entire generation. If I don’t hear anything before next week, I will curse your life and destiny,” he fumed.
The prophet made it clear that he would not stand for any disrespect towards his wife. Opambour’s indignation stems from an incident recounted by Jack Alolome, allegedly involving the prophet’s church in the past.
During a live interview on Accra FM, Jack Alolome shared an incident where Opambour reportedly instructed his junior pastor to investigate a foul smell, suspected to be flatulence, during a church service. The gospel musician claimed that the controversial prophet directed his junior pastor to sniff the buttocks of individuals in the vicinity of the odor, including his wife.
“Opambour is a very sharp guy with a sharp eyesight. We were sitting and all of a sudden, he asked that all the pastors stand up. ‘Can’t you see [sic] this place is smelling? Who has flatulated here? Pastor Chief, sniff everyone’s buttocks,” the gospel musician recounted the alleged words of Opambour.
“So he had to bend his head and sniff everyone out one after the other. He [Opambour] even said “Sniff my wife too, I don’t trust her,” he said.
He however explained that it turned out that the smell was from the shoe of a church drummer which Opambour did not take lightly.
“Apparently it was not any of them but rather the guy playing the drums. He had removed his shoe so the smell was coming from there… so they told him it was the drummer and he asked how much they had been paying the drummer which he was told GHC100 daily. He instructed that ‘give him GHC200. Come for the GHC200 and leave here, you can join whichever church you like but don’t ever come back here again. If you joke, I will curse you and you will only be set free in your grave’ to which the entire church shouted Opambour,” he said.
But according to Opambour, the musician and the radio station as well as the presenter have up to a week to apologise to him or incur his wrath for disrespecting his wife.
