The spiritualist said he refused to stand by and watch the Ghanaian prophet deteriorate in silence, only for people to show up at his funeral with large monetary contributions.

In his view, the more meaningful gesture was to act while Badu Kobi remained alive and in need of medical care.

Seer 1 General also made serious allegations about the prophet's immediate environment, claiming that much remains hidden within Badu Kobi's family and that the preacher appears to have been left without adequate support.

He noted that Badu Kobi had already lost a son, and described himself as someone who now regards the man of God as a father figure, which he said gave him a sense of personal responsibility to intervene.

Despite sharing the video publicly, Seer 1 General declined to share the hospital where Badu Kobi is currently receiving treatment, citing security concerns as the reason for withholding that information.
