    Otabil Mensa is a con man. How can you a pastor get involved in Ghana's economy situation. It's strange. If you have any help please come forward. The N.P.P time bomb it's know exploding

  • Nii Tsokor 9 years ago

    I think the man is cunning and very duplicitous.He takes money from his congregation and buys a mansion out of it and then he goes public and complains about " hardship " in the country.Who is he fooling ?

  • Wiafe 9 years ago

    Worry about the thieves in government--sinking the country.

  • PROF 9 years ago

    PASTORS LIEK OTABIL HAVE ROBBED THE PEOPLE BLIND. THEY ARE WEALTHY AND LIVE IN OPULENCE WHILE THE MASSES SUFFER. THESE PASTORS ARE NOT MEN OF GOD, THEY ARE GREEDY, MATERIALISTIC CON MEN.

  • Kofi 9 years ago

    If Rev Otabil cajoles his congregants to pay hefty tithes, it is not synonymous with dipping his hands into the national coffers like your people are doing. Whenever any well-meaning person tells the true picture of the count ...

  • Jojo Hammond, New Jersey 9 years ago

    Rev. Otabil has the right to criticize the NDC Gov't and state what he thinks is the state of our economy. In doing so though, the man of God also opens himself up for people to say what they think of him.

    I have observed ...

    You're right, Nana. Otabil is deceptive by all standards. He is a polititian & a crook hiding behind the Bible. He has succeeded in playing on the ignorance of his members to enrich himself. He is full of hate & anger for the ...

  • Pastor Nana Danquah 9 years ago

    Contrary to you perception, Dr. Otabil isn't a "polititian" nor a crook. And again, no one can hide behind the Bible. If you're familiar with the Bible, you would have known that the Bible is "sharper than a two edged sword" ...

    And the object of Otabil's critique Mahama is a saint. If you don't realize Ghana is sinking--you deserve the blackouts, the taxes, the filth, cholera, etc.

    Yes, ! I perfectly agree with you. So Nana, the question is this; have you ever dated Rev Dr mensah Otabill? If yes, when and for how long? Are you hurt, probably for "dumping" you? If, no, then why such a hatred, such an ang ...

    It is John Mahama who is deceptive. Mahama fooled Ghanaians that he is a Christian--but where is his righteousness? Where is the compassion?

    Many might shun this article as a 'political witch hunt' but I tell you it's the gospel truth. Just find out how Pastor Otabil had problems with the founder of Regent University and how the man broke away to start regent.

  • Seko 9 years ago

    why dont you write similar articles about Duncan Williams, he is richer than Otabil, or you do not see that one.

    Shame unto you, you have tried severraly to destroy this man but have not been successful.

  • AKORABS 9 years ago

    What the writer says equally applies to Duncan Williams. I do not think she has to mention all names as there are too many in Ghana who match the character described and his machinations. It is for us to wake up from our slum ...
