Speaking on Accra 100.5FM’s ‘Ayekoo Ayekoo’ with Nana Romeo, Osofo Kyiriabosom described critics as ignorant of the teachings of the Bible.

He added that he uses consultations to fund his church operations, foot the church’s utility bills, TV programmes as well as other projects.

Osofo Kyiriabosom also said there is no way he will stop collecting fees on consultation because the offertory alone cannot solve the church’s problems.

''I don’t joke with my consultation fees. I can’t afford to go hungry when I’m working. Doctors charge for consultation, so why can’t we pastors do same when people come to us,'' the man of God stressed.

''Those who criticise me and other pastors are just ignorant of the teachings of the Bible.''
