Founder and CEO of Tobinco Group, Dr Samuel Amo Tobin
Dr Samuel Amo Tobin, Founder and CEO of the Tobinco Group, one of Ghana’s largest pharmaceutical companies, has become the subject of widespread online discussion after a video of him passionately preaching in a market went viral.
The video, shared on X (formerly Twitter) on July 23, 2025, shows Dr Tobin dressed in a white long-sleeved shirt and black trousers, urging market-goers to embrace Christ and repent.
During his sermon, he shared a personal testimony, recounting the significant challenges he faced earlier in life and how his fortunes turned around after accepting Christianity.
“God is the only one who can give you eternal life. And this eternal life is only in Christ. If you give your life to Him and accept Him as your true Lord and Saviour, He will fulfill your heart’s desires,” Dr Tobin preached.
He added a personal note, saying, “Some time ago, even finding food to eat was a problem for me. But through Christ, that became history. Look at where I am now.”
The video has sparked mixed reactions across social media platforms.
One user commented, “Even a CEO is out here spreading the gospel—there’s clearly a lot our generation needs to reflect on.”
However, another user, @AmmaBaahGh, offered a contrasting view: “Again, if he really wants to follow Christ, then he should do what Jesus told the rich young ruler, give up all your riches and follow me (Matthew 19:16–22).”
