‘You’re a fool to marry a nightclub-goer’ – Apostle Gyebi fires warning

Apostle Daniel Atta Gyebi, the leader of the House of Jacob Chapel in Kumasi, has stirred public debate following his recent comments advising men against marrying women who frequent nightclubs or wear multiple earrings.

During a sermon at his church, Apostle Gyebi strongly warned men not to consider women who currently attend or have previously attended nightclubs as suitable marriage partners, unless those women have demonstrably changed their lifestyles.

“Never marry a woman who goes to a nightclub, whether present or past, except that the lady has changed,” he declared. “If you are set to marry a lady who used to attend the nightclub or still attends, then you are a fool. You are mad just as the lady. What happens in the nightclub, not everyone knows. Some people are set up, open their legs, and people have sex with them. A girl who has been seeing this act in the club and you say you want to marry that girl?”

Apostle Gyebi also took aim at women with multiple ear piercings, saying that such physical choices reflect poorly on their character and marriageability.

“Any serious guy who wants a lady to marry will not go in for a lady with multiple earring piercings, literally covering her ears. The ears are shut with earrings. This means that when you speak to her, your words hit the earrings and they bounce back. Such a lady will hardly listen to advice,” he stated.

He compared modern women with multiple piercings to women of previous generations, suggesting that the latter were more respectful and receptive to guidance.

“Our mothers wore just one earring their entire life. When you speak to them, they hear and respond politely,” he added.

The sermon, now circulating widely on social media, has sparked intense discussions about morality, modern fashion choices, and the role of the church in shaping relationship values.

While supporters defend Apostle Gyebi’s right to uphold conservative Christian teachings, critics argue that his remarks perpetuate stigma and unfairly target women based on personal choices.
