Apostle Solomon Oduro attempts to end his life

"After losing my temple and court case, I became so devastated that I contemplated taking my own life on top of the Nima Overhead," Oduro said.

The confession has sent shockwaves across social media, given how prominent a figure Oduro is within Ghanaian Christian circles.

Apostle Solomon Oduro was previously married to celebrated marriage counsellor Charlotte Oduro, with whom he shares a daughter, making his public unburdening all the more striking for those who have followed the couple over the years.

Apostle Oduro's struggle behind closed doors

The Nima Overhead bridge, a well-known structure in Accra, became the backdrop for what Oduro described as his lowest point. His willingness to name the specific location suggests just how vivid and real that moment of crisis remains for him.

Losing a place of worship carries a particular weight for a man of the cloth. For Oduro, the temple was not simply a building; it represented years of ministry and identity.

When the court case that may have offered a path to reclaiming it also collapsed, the cumulative blow appears to have been overwhelming.

His decision to speak openly about suicidal thoughts is rare among Ghanaian religious leaders, where mental health struggles are rarely discussed so candidly in public.

By naming his pain and the precise moment of despair, Oduro has stepped into territory that few in his position would dare to occupy.
