Founder and Leader of the International Gods way Church, Bishop Daniel Obinim has sparked a social media storm with his protective outfit against the coronavirus to be used for his one-on-one counselling sessions.
The Man of God has been a subject of social media troll after an image of him in one of his churches seated with a nose mask and surgical gloves emerged giving credence to his earlier announcement he will only be engaging in counselling in order to raise some money.
Bishop Obinim had revealed that he will still be conducting counselling services for members despite the ban on church activities in the country as a result of the coronavirus.
“The President has said social gatherings have been cancelled for a month. Jesus take the wheel…we came here because of the announcement by the President and we have no problem with his directive. My problem is the sick persons we pray for to get well. Our worry is how to cater for all these persons even though we can all pray in our individual homes”, he revealed.
According to him, he will cancel all church activities but will engage on one counselling activities on one-on-one basis for those who need it.
He added “If you do not want me to engage on the counselling to raise money to cater cost television channel, then I will shut the station because I pay about $8,000 monthly”
President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo on Monday as part of measures in curtailing the further spread of the deadly Coronavirus banned all social gatherings including Church activities.
“All public gatherings, including conferences, workshops, funerals, festivals, political rallies, sporting events and religious activities, such as services in churches and mosques, have been suspended for the next four (4) weeks. Private burials are permitted, but with limited numbers, not exceeding twenty-five (25) in attendance”, he disclosed.
