Your curses won’t work – Ola Michael replies Ogyaba

Entertainment pundit Ola Michael has questioned Prophet Ogyaba’s decision to use anointing oil to pronounce curses against fellow entertainment commentator Baaba Cann while standing beside a river.

Speaking on Neat FM’s Entertainment GH programme, Ola criticised the prophet’s conduct, asking why a man who identifies as a Christian preacher would resort to such practices against someone who had criticised him.

Ogyaba poured anointing oil while pronouncing curses against Baaba Cann’s future partner and bloodline, wishing severe disabilities on them after she discussed allegations connecting him to a sexual scandal on UTV.

Reacting to the development, Ola Michael challenged the prophet’s use of anointing oil, arguing that the substance was meant for blessings, healing and consecration rather than personal attacks and curses.

He said: “You call yourself a man of God, you preach Christianity and stand before your congregation to talk about the power of Jesus Christ, yet you take anointing oil and use it to pronounce curses on somebody because you are angry with that person. What kind of Christianity is that?”

Ola also dismissed the suggestion that Ogyaba’s actions could harm him, insisting he was not afraid of being cursed with anointing oil.

He maintained that his comments about the prophet were based on what he knew and believed to be true, adding that no amount of oil or spiritual declarations could intimidate him.

“Masa, you can’t curse me with olive oil. What is the history of a pastor using anointing oil to curse somebody and the curse actually working? The oil you are supposed to use to bless people, pray for them and heal them cannot suddenly become a weapon because you are angry with someone,” he stated.

The Neat FM presenter further demonstrated his lack of fear by recording a satirical video in which he poured his own oil in response to the controversy.

Beyond the Ogyaba and Baaba Cann disagreement, Ola Michael shared an experience he once had with a traditional spiritualist, saying the encounter exposed similarities between the operations of some traditional shrines and modern charismatic churches.

He explained that his interaction with the traditionalist made him question the methods some pastors use to attract followers, collect money and convince people that they need continuous spiritual assistance.

According to him, one similarity is paying consultation fees before a spiritual leader agrees to address a person’s problems.

He said: “When you go to a juju man, the first thing he asks you to do is pay a consultation fee before he even listens to your problem. But today, you go to some churches, and they tell you to pay a consultation fee or book an appointment before you can meet the pastor privately. What is the difference?”

Ola also compared the financial demands made by traditional spiritualists during rituals with the practice of some pastors asking church members to pay specific amounts for spiritual interventions.
