Badu Kobi Slams Critics: I AM NOT SORRY!

Prophet Emmanuel Badu Kobi of the Glorious Wave Ministries has said he is not bothered at all by a section of the public who disagree with him for saying that marrying an Ashanti woman is like inheriting problems.

The highly respect Christian leader has said there is no need to retract and apologize because  he stands by everything he said about Ashanti women is the audio visual  that has gone viral and become an internet sensation.

“We we talk about a tribe; a tribe is qualified by seven things. There is the name of the tribe, there is the attitude of the tribe, there is the passion of the tribe, and they are seven.  What I said last Friday is not about Ashnties. It is about Ashanti women’s inherited attitude.

“I said I have done my research. If you have not done yours, go and do yours. One of the things I found out is that, even when as Ashanti woman is going to marry,  the family tells her, when you go  and things go well in the marriage, bring us something but when things do not go well, come back. The question is what type of marriage you are giving to the person”, Prophet Badu Kobi asked in a response to his critics.

The man of God explained further: “Let me tell you something; on this earth, nothing destroys more than our inherited attitudes. Those who are wise started asking me questions, but those who are fools started bashing me. A very reputable Ashanti old women sent me a text and said man of God, you are wise, we Ashanti women, by reason of our inherited attitudes, we need prayers.

“Among every tribe, there is the attitude and there is a changed person. I am not referring to all Ashantis as that, I am hitting Ashanti inherited attitudes. There are changed Ashantis, They would not bash me because they are changed.  But those who know they are not changed, they would bash me but I am not bothered. If you do not understand, go and ask. My word to every tribe is simple: shed off those inherited attitudes,” he added.

He continued: “If you do not understand a man, then you go on social media and say let us bash him. I cannot be bashed. I am beyond bashing. Now, let me tell you something. Spiritual men are different. Jesus said, they hear but they do not understand.

“There is a difference between a statement and its interpretation.  If they are worried about this, then in future, there are many things I am going to say. What is happening is that some have even turned it political. Some say they are for NPP so they would fight me and a whole lot. But you see, when you are dealing with naïve people that are how their behavior would be.

“I remember when I once said that I don’t give cars to the poor because a poor person cannot handle a car. A poor person cannot handle the maintenance. Every material is sustained by material.

When I said I would not allow my daughter to marry a poor man, they never understood and they castigated me. But you see, interpretation is different from a statement. A poor man is not one without money. A poor man is a poor mind.”

WHAT DID HE SAY ABOUT ASHANTI WOMEN

Prophet Badu Kobi, during a sermon at his church last Friday, made the following comments:

“I know Mama Gloria (his wife) would have life. But if anything happens, for me to marry and Ashanti woman, tweaaaa.  When you marry an Ashanti lady, you have inherited problems. I have said it. I would tell you the truth.  I have done research over the years. Fanti ladies sometimes are foolish, but Ashantis, no.  Ayigbe women are too much of doormats. But Ashantis, they are looking for properties, to carry back. Their mother is at the corner, influencing everything.

“I have done my research.  My daughter wants to marry and I have told her that if she wants to go to the marriage and be driven back she should go and behave like an Ashanti girl.

“The Ashanti women do not respect Ashanti men, especially when you are broke. She would dress you from your top and ask you who you are because the mother is always talking to her. I am telling yiu the truth.  These things I am saying is on Facebook and would remain forever. When you become broke before as Ashanti women, you would see.”

The comments have been largely condemned with some women groups even threatening to march to his church to demonstrate their displeasure at his comments.
