Prophet Ogyaba Refuses To Delete Video Cursing Baaba Cann Amid Defamation Dispute

According to recent reports, Ghanaian preacher Prophet Ogyaba has publicly refused to delete a controversial video in which he invoked curses on entertainment pundit Baaba Cann following allegations regarding his personal life.

The dispute stems from claims allegedly made by Cann suggesting that Ogyaba had engaged in a threesome involving his goddaughter, Ohemaa Dynamite. In response, the pastor posted a video issuing severe curses against the pundit. Despite the clip being reported by social media users for alleged violations of community guidelines, Ogyaba confirmed he has formally appealed the flag and has no intention of pulling down the content.

Addressing the controversy in a statement on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, Ogyaba insisted that his calling as a religious leader does not require him to remain passive when facing public defamation. He argued that pastors maintain the right to defend their character against harmful falsehoods.

“Just because I am a pastor does not mean I should sit back and watch people tarnish my image,” Ogyaba declared, emphasizing that he stands firmly behind every word spoken in the video.

Demonstrating conviction in his denial, the preacher stated he is willing to face the spiritual repercussions of his own curses if the allegations against him prove true. He challenged his accusers to substantiate their claims, maintaining that he never participated in the alleged conduct and will not allow unverified rumors to ruin his reputation.

The clash has generated significant debate across Ghanaian social media platforms, drawing mixed reactions regarding the public invocation of curses by clergy members versus their right to self-defense against defamatory accusations.
