A member of the Council of Royals at Believers’ Worship Center has condemned the manner Rev Obofour publicly expressed his displeasure after being ridiculed by some Philadelphia Movement members on social media.
In a video shared on social media on April 7, 2025, the man identified as Osabarima Sarfo Katakyie noted that Rev Obofour shouldn’t have stood on his pulpit to address Adom Kyei-Duah in such a manner.
He explained that Rev Obofour’s actions were disrespectful, adding that Adom Kyei-Duah is older than him and should have greeted him, even at the funeral of IGP Christian Yohuno Tetteh’s mother.
“In our culture, it is disrespectful to send a message to someone through the internet. Secondly, Adom Kyei-Duah is older than him, so it was an act of disrespect. He shouldn’t even, in the first place, force Adom Kyei-Duah to bring his people to order. Assuming Obofour was respectful, he would have gone to greet him when they met at the funeral,” he said.
Also addressing the issue, another member of the Council of Royal Believers added that Rev. Obofour’s actions show he is not ready to make peace, as he claimed.
According to him, Rev. Obofour could have sent a delegation to speak on his behalf if he wanted the issue to be settled amicably; however, his actions show he is not ready for peace.
“It is even written that whoever wants peace should first be peaceful. And after watching the video, I can see that he only wants to hear from us. He is not ready to smoke the peace pipe. If he wanted, he would have sent a delegation to the Royal Council; then we would see how best we could settle the issue,” he added.
This comment comes in response to Rev. Obofour’s disappointment with some bloggers from Rev. Stephen Adom Kyei-Duah’s camp, who shared videos of him from an event and published negative analyses about him.
