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 insulted 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 National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer, John Dramani Mahama, held a fellowship service with clergymen in Kumasi.

At the event, Prophet Opambour expressed concerns about Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia's policy that would use the Ghana Card as a foundation for a credit scoring system, allowing citizens to purchase cars. Opambour ridiculed the initiative, questioning its feasibility and challenging the notion that the Ghana Card could simply be used to buy vehicles.

However, Afia Pokua disagreed, calling Opambour "shallow-minded" and arguing that he had misunderstood the project’s intent.

"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.
