Bishop Obinim, the pastor who came in for heavy criticism after a video where he was captured flogging church members who were accused of engaging in Premarital sex has found an ally in the mothers of the two victims.
The bishop had said that he flogged the two perpetrators because God had told him to and the mothers of the boy and girl who were flogged are in support of the decision.
The mother of the girl said she’s ready to even invoke curses on people if they keep hassling Obinim.
Both mothers were present at the church when the two were flogged and have no qualms about it, one of them even said she was excited by it.
The mother of the boy, known simply as Lady Joy, said “When my husband died and we needed help, no Ghanaian intervened, not even my family. Angel Obinim took me in and enrolled my son in school so they should leave the ‘angel’ alone” the boy’s mother stated.
“He is our father, he has been taking care of me and my son since my husband died. He is the one paying my son’s school fees and has the right to discipline him when he goes wrong.”
The girl’s mother on her part said, “Papa should have beaten her more. Imagine what would have happened if the prophecy had not come and she drunk the medicine to abort the baby.
‘If Ghanaians do not stop condemning the pastor for correcting the children I will begin to invoke curses on them,’ the 72-year-old woman threatened.
