Much of the video centred on Obinim's overwhelmed reaction to the crowd that showed up for his church service on Sunday, August 30, as he sidestepped conversations about his marriage.

He said he was completely taken by surprise the moment he walked through the doors.

"As soon as I entered the church, I got the heat. My mind was, I was so shocked. I couldn't even... it was filled, it was filled," he said, explaining that he had only ever seen such numbers during major calendar events like the 31st night service.

Obinim also used the moment to pour out his appreciation to those who attended, saying the church holds a deeply personal place for him.

Angel and Gifted also featured prominently in the video, with the mood shifting between emotional gratitude and playful banter.

Obinim laughed about how the energy in the church was so high that he found himself dancing, joking that the Holy Spirit must have been responsible.

Bishop Obinim, Florence Obinim's rumoured divorce proceedings

The footage came a day after reports emerged that Florence Obinim had initiated a traditional divorce from her husband, Bishop Daniel Obinim, after 22 years of marriage.

Media personality Ola Michael claimed that veteran gospel musician's family officially returned her “Tiri Nsa” (the traditional Ghanaian token or drink symbolising a woman’s intent to dissolve a marriage).

A source close to the family said Bishop Obinim’s side accepted the traditional divorce token without resistance.

Rumours of marital trouble escalated a few months ago when Florence stated publicly in interviews that she felt emotionally drained and was fully prepared to accept a divorce if her husband wanted to end their marriage.

Shortly after, Bishop Obinim claimed in a video that he had dissolved the marriage and moved out of their matrimonial home.
