A few days ago, Bishop Obinim made headlines after he made a funeral request, prohibiting his wife from participating in his burial arrangements after his death.
He made the controversial remarks while addressing his congregation at a church service.
According to Obinim, only his children and his church should be in charge of organising his burial service.
The founder of International God's Way Church explained that his decision is due to some things that have happened after some prominent Ghanaians, including Daddy Lumba, passed away.
In response, Florence Obinim, in an interview, stated that she was not amazed but claimed she was rather thankful to God that her husband had disclosed this while he was still alive.

Lawyer advises Florence Obinim after funeral request
According to a report by “The BBC Ghana”, Lawyer Mary Ohenewaa Afful has broken her silence on the brouhaha surrounding Florence Obinim and her husband.
The legal practitioner is said to have advised the gospel musician to leave her marriage now that she claimed to have become toxic.
As indicated by the blog, the lawyer noted that no prayer can fix a toxic marriage, especially when the man involved keeps turning his partner into a laughingstock.
Mary Ohenewaa Afful Esq supposedly added that no schnapps can dissolve an ordinance marriage, explaining that some situations require difficult decisions to protect one's peace and dignity rather than prayers.
The legal practitioner is said to have asked Florence Obinim to file for divorce as soon as possible before her supposed situation takes the path of Akosua Serwaa, the first wife of the late Daddy Lumba.
The lawyer's statement has triggered widespread reactions on social media, with a lot of concerned netizens sharing their thoughts.
