On Thursday, February 19, the former hiplife superstar, whose real name is Nana Yaw Akosa, organised a three dayintercessory prayer event for Akosua Serwaa Fosuh, held at the Obra Spot in Accra.
The prayers were reportedly to seek God’s favour for Daddy Lumba’s first wife, who remains embroiled in a bitter legal feud with the musician’s second wife, Odo Broni.
Unfortunately for the prominent evangelist, turnout for the program appeared to be low.
Videos from the day of the prayers showed the venue looking bare, with many chairs laid out for guests who appeared not to have shown up.
A viral video showed Papa Shee in a sombre mood as he prepared to start the program despite the apparent low patronage.
Despite the challenges with turnout, the man of God went ahead with the program, preaching to those in attendance and also holding a prayer and deliverance session.
The low turnout continued into days two and three of the program, stirring backlash on social media.
Below is a TikTok video showing the turnout during Papa Shee’s Akosua Serwaa event.
Papa Shee rejects Akosua Serwaa crusade criticism
In a video seen by YEN.com.gh on the Instagram page thosecalledcelebs on Wednesday, February 25, 2026, Papa Shee finally replied to the critics of his crusade.
In the video, the interviewer asked him about the reported poor attendance that was recorded on all three days of the event.
The interviewer pointed to the massive fan base Akosua Serwaa commanded, especially after she arrived in Ghana from Germany on January 9 and subsequently visited Kumasi on January 11.
Responding to the question, Papa Shee rejected the claim that his service recorded a low turnout.
He said the event was well-attended and he was pleased with the number of people who showed up in support.
