People pipe down, blame the journalist who put this up. This is poor, immature,cheap journalism.. See how they lead us astray. Check the caption of this article.......+"fufu kills" First it was misreported that the esteemed man of God was against the eating of fufu...this gained some traction... Doctor Otabil only reffered to our attitude of equating a new way of thinking or doing things to being white and the old way to being black as such we are stuck in time whilst the world has moved on..illustrating with fufu its preparation and how it is eaten. You may disagree with him but it doesn't call for insults and name calling., that is petty! Lets raise the bar of our discussion! Let our media practioners also stop this sensationalism and spinning or giving slants to what people say. My two pesewas.
so mensah otabil what if one of your congregants is a chop bar owner? abi she uses some of the money she gets from the fufu chop bar to pay tithes and collection for you to be able to buy those decorated cutlery. and you are now spoiling her business abi. God punish you. by their fruits ye shall know them. God is coming soon. false prophets
Who the gods want dead, it is said, they first make them mad. The advanced stage of over zealousness is ***barred word***. And only a ***barred word*** thinks he is the repository of all wisdom. Many cultures across the world eat with their fingers. Indians, Middle Easterners, and in the Far East, still do. In Africa, Somalis, Ethiopians, and the rest of Africans are noted for eating with their fingers. Probability is that Mensa Otabil must have started eating with his fingers at certain stages of his life. And his parents or grand parents must have lived their entire lives using their fingers to eat. The point on hygiene is significant to the subject. And the stress must have been placed on that. Also, if it had a connection on eating fufu, addressing the shelf life of the cooked or pounded stuff, is worth sharing. After all, cassava, when allowed to stay longer, begins to ferment. And who said, after those processes involved in the preparation of fufu, it surely requires a level of sterilization? That is the central message. I hope it doesn't change into an International Central Gospel Church.
Massa,just go back and study history and you will know that your parents, Grand parents and great grand parents were all eating FUFU before you came to the scene with your preachings.I hope you are not like those pastors with that magic ring.Some Pastors these days are just making mockery of our Lord.
Dear Pastor, Have heard of finger foods? Come again
All the pastor is call for is new ways of doing things. Eat fufu but find a new way of eating which is more hygienic . Every society started eating with fingers but have moved on to new ways of approaching it. Let's renew our minds. We can't even think through what people say and ask ourselves questions no wonder we are under develop. Eat the same way till you die wow!!!
masa so fufu should now be enjoyed wit fork and knife. this is what happens when you take money from de innocent without accounting
Let no one do any PROJECT for the good Pastor. What he said is clearly heard in the video clip-eating fufu with the fingers is antiquated and it typifies the African'nsawam reluctance to respond to change.I'll be surprised if he didn't expect the kind of response he's receiving.In my opinion the the respected Pastor goofed big time. I don't have a problem with his personal stance against eating fufu and even how to eat it. But why should he seek to rope in others and even impliedly denigrate those who eat with their fingers. No, sir. I strongly disagree with you.Please you are an influential person so kindly be mindful of what you say. Thanks
