Controversial Ghanaian prophet Ebenezer Opambour Yiadom, popularly known as Prophet 1, has issued a stern warning to broadcast journalist Afia Pokua (Vim Lady) for labelling him as a “shallow-minded” person.
In a viral video, Prophet Opambour was spotted saying that if the broadcaster insults him again, he would hurl curses at her.
“If I have not said anything negative about her (Afia Pokua) and she chooses to insult me, I will curse her and do whatever I please with her, including her unborn children,” he declared.
He added, “I give her until Sunday; if she makes another comment about me, I will curse her.”
Prophet Opambour also took the opportunity to question the ‘One District, One Factory’ policy promised by the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
“We don’t want the promise the NPP made in 2016 and 2020 about the One District, One Factory. Where are all the factories? Where are the dams? We don’t want another promise from Bawumia that the Ghana Card can be used to purchase a car when elected. That’s why I asked the question when we met Mahama. So I don’t understand why the girl insulted me,” he added.
Background
On November 11, 2024, the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, held a fellowship service with clergymen in Kumasi.
During the event, Prophet Opambour raised concerns about Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia’s policy, which allows the use of the Ghana Card as the basis for a credit scoring system to enable citizens to purchase cars.
Opambour mocked the initiative, questioning the project’s feasibility and challenging the idea that the Ghana Card could be merely used to purchase vehicles.
However, this statement did not sit well with Afia Pokua, who described Opambour as “shallow-minded” and argued that he misunderstood the project.
“Anybody who condemns the Ghana Card is a shallow-minded person. This shouldn’t even be a topic for discussion because this same identification card is what has made Europe what it is today,” she stated.
