The Head Pastor for the Alabaster International Ministries, Prophet Kofi Oduro says his comments on tribalism has been misconstrued.
Prophet Oduro is reported to have said that Ashanti's and Kwahu's are too tribalistic that is why they discriminated against Akyem's and Ewes.
"Now, the Ashanti's are claiming that they wanted an Ashanti man to be flagbearer and not an Akyem person to lead the country" he allegedly said.
However, in a facebook post, he said the video which is making the rounds is part of a sermon that was rather speaking ‘against tribalism’.

BADU KOBI AND ALL HATE PREACHERS MUST BE ARRESTED, EVEN WHEN RETRACTED. THE HARM IS ALREADY DONE. THE RECENT UTTERANCES OF BADU KOBI, ESPECIALLY HIS ATTACK ON ASHANTI REGIONAL MINISTER, SHOULD CAUSE HIM TO BE ARRESTED. HIS PUBLIC UTTERANCES ARE DANGEROUS TO CAUSE TRIBAL HATRED IN GHANA. IT IS DISSERVICE TO THE NATION IF THE BNI FAIL TO INVITE HIM IMMEDIATELY. AS WE APPROACH A POLITICAL ELECTION IN 2020, IT IS THE AGENDA OF SOME POLITICIANS WITH NO VISION AND RIGHT POLICIES TO EXPLOIT THE WEAK MINDED AND DISHONEST GHANAIANS, ESPECIALLY THE SELF CENTERED AND SELF ACCLAIMED PUBLIC PREACHERS TO SOW TRIBAL HOSTILITIES IN ORDER TO DIVERT ATTENTION FROM ECONOMIC AND ESSENTIAL SOCIAL CONCERNS. ACTIONS IN PURSUIT OF SUCH AGENDA SHOULD BE STOPPED PROMPTLY AND DRASTICALLY BY THE NATIONAL SECURITY OPERATIVES AND AGENCIES BEFORE THEY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE PEACE AND THE UNITY OF THE COUNTRY. FAILURE TO STOP THE THE DANGER BY SUCH SELF ACCLAIMED PASTORS MAY CAUSE HARM TO THE NATION, AS WELL AS THE PERPETRATORS THEMSELVE. WE STILL REMEMBER OF WHAT HAPPENED IN THE CASE OF OWUSU BEMPAH AND THE MUSLIM YOUTH, WHEN HE TALKED ILL OF THE CHIEF IMAM. THE ASANTES, THE FANTES, OR EWES HAVE NOT REACTED TO BADU KOBI THE WAY AS THE MUSLIM YOUTH DID TO OWUSU BEMPAH BUT WE CANNOT TAKE THAT FOR GRANTED AND DO NOTHING. THE BNI OR WHOEVER SHOULD NOT SLEEP ON BADU KOBI MADDDNESSS AND DISTURB THE PUBLIC PEACE. FOR THE PAST THREE WEEKS THE SOCIAL MEDIA HAS TRENDED ON HIGHLY INFURIATED LANGUAGE AND INSULTS THAT HAS NEVER BEEN SEEN BEFORE OVER THE DANGEROUS SPEECH OF BADU KOBI. BNI AND CID ARE PAID TO WORK AND NOT PAID TO SLEEP. THEY NEED TO WAKE UP. WE EXPECT THEM TO BE PROACTIVE AND NOT TO BE PASSIVE AND DAY DREAMING. NOBODY IS ABOVE THE LAW, LET ALONE DERANGED CHARACTERS OF POTENTIAL PUBLIC CHAOS. I WISH THE BNI AND CID HAVE SMART OFFICERS TO FIND THE LAWS THAT HAVE BEEN BREACHED BY BADU KOBI TO ARREST HIM. HIS ARREST WILL SEND A STRONG SIGNAL TO ALL USELESSSS TALKS AND ACTIONS OF THE FAAKE PASTORS PROLIFERATING IN GHANA SOCIETY. BESIDES ALL THAT, THE ASHANTI REGIONAL MINISTER MUST DEAL WITH BADU KOBI ACCORDING TO THE LAW OF THE COUNTRY FOR THE PERSONAL ATTACK ON HIM.
PUBLIC SPEAKING IS AN ART AND IT IS LEARNT AND PRACTICED. THE PASTORS OF THESE NEW SO CALLED CHURCHES SHOILD LEARN FROM HOW THE PASTORS OF THE OLD CHURCHES SPEAK, PREACH AND DELIVER SERMONS BORING SOMETIMES AS IT MAYBE, IT IS MOSTLY DEVOID OF INSULTS, ASPERTIONS UNLIKE THESE KOBI, ODURO, CHA CHA AND THE LIKE
I am sad about comment made by people its unfortunate. Christians has become unforgiving. lets admit without facts that what is out there is true, the man has been sober, humble to apologize please don't crucify him. To make a better judgement let us look for full message so we can draw better conclusion. I am so sad Christians are the only people who walk on their falling heroes. Hypocrisy
Mr Oduro,I wonder if you are called by God to preach his word of salvation.Your actions on the pulpit are all comical typical of comedians just to attract attention.Jesus stand for love and unity.Shame unto you.
Liar!
Nobody needs your apology. Man of God indeed. The Asantes you are bashing were the people who voted for Akufo Addo. The most hard working ministers in Akufo Addo government are Asantes. Return the bribe you have taken to divide NPP, it will not work Mr man of God.
I LIKE THE WAY YOU DUELY APOLOGIZE
You are NOT smarter that anyone in Ghana. We can hear and understand well! Disgraced so-called men of God! You are men of en. By your fruits we know you now! The poor in Ghana are making you rich, yet you turn around and insult them!
People are becoming more discerning. This wouldn't have been an issue some 10 years ago. Little by Little Ghanaians are asking questions. I am so elated.
Religious leaders think they know all. It is rather unfortunate many Christians do not read their Bibles and are deceived by so called pastors and men of God. A man of God will never say those things. We must be careful when we are given the platform to talk. Instead of using it to edify the body of Christ, we should not use it to sow conflicts among brethren. God hates this kind of people who want to cause confusion. Within a week, pastors are attacking Ashantis. Those saying all sort of things against the Ashantis, are they clean and angels? I have stayed in the North and they called Ashanti names but and discriminate against people from Ashanti region. I wanted to rent an apartment and I was asked if I am an Ashanti. The person concluded that I am from Akuapim and said very bad things about Ashantis. I told her I am an Ashanti and she started pleading. We are one people as Ghanaians and we must live in harmony with any tribe. We are all humans.
