Knowing very well how controversial Bishop Daniel Obinim is and his penchant for being in the news for the wrong reasons, you won’t be far from right if you think we are playing mischief with our headline.
But sorry to disappoint you, the above caption is by no means shrouded in any figurative expression; yes-the founder of the International Godsway Church is doling out millions of Ghana cedis for the construction of a a major road from Kenyasi to Bosore in Kumasi.
The bishop said although he often used the road once or twice in a week, God touched his heart to fix it. “In fact, the road from Kenyasi to Bosore is not good at all. It’s a very, very bad road. It’s really a terrible road.”
“In Ghana, one of our major problems is bad roads, but it’s not everything we can leave for the government to do. So, God touched my heart to construct the road,” he said.
The popular preacher added that work on the project was progressing steadily, noting he had finished the first phase, which involved leveling the road and constructing gutters along it.
Obinim however lamented that although he’s intentions are clean, he has not received any form of assistance from the inhabitant of that particular stretch of the road which is inhabited by prominent citizens.
He said: “There are many wealthy men living in Bosore. Some are MPs; some are assemblymen; some are chiefs; some are even queen mothers. Yet, none of them has come to me to say, ‘Bishop’ or ‘Angel, take one cedi to aid the construction of the road’”.
Obinim, therefore, appealed to his church members and the public to donate towards the construction of the road. He even added that he has no interest in going after their money in the spiritual like his modus operandi stipulates.
“Given the huge cost involved in the project, I going to need your support. I could go the spiritual realm to take money and transfer it into physical for the construction of the road, but if I do that, you won’t get blessings,” he said.
