Badu Kobi stressed that he has people within Ghana and abroad who could support him financially if he needed such assistance. He therefore urged the public not to assume that the hospital video was connected to a financial appeal.
The preacher further stated that money has never been his primary motivation, disclosing that he had rejected financial offers in the past because he believed certain decisions, particularly those concerning political leadership, should be determined by God.
