I was never ordained pastor – Ofori Amponsah

Popular highlife artiste Ofori Amponsah, also known as ‘All 4 Real’, has revealed that he was never an ordained minister of God

He told joy news that he was only a figurehead in his church but not a pastor as people have claimed adding what he had was a fellowship and not a church.

This comes as a surprise to many people because some years ago, the ‘Otoolege’ hit singer announced that he was now a pastor and went ahead to put up his own congregation, Family of Faith and Love in 2012.

“Ofori Amponsah is not an ordained Pastor. I just attend church. I love Jesus. It’s one part of me that I don’t think is going to change anytime soon… it’s not a registered church, I’m not an ordained pastor; I just love Jesus, that’s all,” he revealed.

The musician, last year released his first single after his U-turn to secular music with ace rapper Sarkodie titled ‘Alewa’. This earned him the nickname ‘Pastor Alewa’.

Responding to whether he feels comfortable with that name, he says “I accept. I mean anything to explain my faith. I cannot go to people’s houses and tell them what to call me. I shouldn’t blow my head because of this.

“It’s normal. It’s part of show business anyway…whatever the people call me I accept.”

On the same platform, Ofori Amponsah refuted claims that he kissed a female fan during a performance at a concert over the weekend at highlife musician Amakye Dede’s ‘Abrantie Spot’.

He said he only gave the lady a kiss on the cheek and hugged her at an angle that gave an impression of an intimate kiss.
