A heated public feud between a Kumasi radio presenter and the Ashanti Regional Minister has ended abruptly, thanks to the intervention of revered Ghanaian preacher, Rev. Ebenezer Adarkwa Yiadom, aka Opambour.
During a live TV appearance, Opambour firmly directed EL-lizato, a presenter with Abusua FM, to stop attacking the Minister and apologise for his online comments.
Describing EL-lizato as his “son”, Opambour expressed disappointment in his conduct, stressing the need for respect and discipline, especially towards authority figures.
He emphasised that the Regional Minister’s office represents the President and should not be subjected to insults.
The man of God assured EL-lizato of his support, urging him to heed wise counsel.
Opambour’s words had immediate impact. EL-lizato swiftly apologised to Dr. Frank Amoakohene, admitting his comments were out of line.
“I sincerely apologise for my actions and words. I will not engage in such behaviour again,” he stated.
The presenter acknowledged Opambour’s guidance and pledged to maintain professionalism.The move has sparked praise for Opambour’s influence in resolving the situation.
Many see it as a testament to the power of respected spiritual leaders in shaping public discourse and mediating conflicts in Ghana, highlighting the enduring impact of spiritual authority in modern-day disputes.
