The drama unfolded after Ola Michael, speaking on Neat FM, alleged that a family member of Bishop Obinim had contacted him with details of a traditional divorce.

The journalist claimed Florence had carried drinks to the Obinim family as part of a customary process to formally dissolve the marriage, and that the family had returned those drinks, with Bishop Obinim reportedly instructing them to accept the gesture.

"What the family member told me was that Florence's family had returned the drinks, saying they were tired of the disgrace, insults, and everything else that had happened. I asked him whether, when the family returned the drinks, Bishop Obinim collected them, and he said the bishop reportedly directed that they should take them," Ola shared.

Obinim wasted no time responding. During a church service on 8 September 2026, he flatly denied that any family member had spoken to the journalist, insisting only three people were privy to the situation.

An audio clip captured the bishop using oil, water, and other elements during what appeared to be a formal curse invocation directed squarely at Ola Michael.

"The person who said that my relative informed him that I happily took the drinks, I leave the person to God. As I pour this oil on the floor, may God deal with Ola. I invoke curses on him if he comes into contact with the wind and water," Obinim declared.

He also aimed for the journalist's approach, arguing that even if Ola Michael had received information, he should have framed it as hearsay rather than attributing it directly to a family source.

"He will suffer. He should have reported the issue as hearsay. He shouldn't say my relative informed him," Obinim added.

Obinim questions Florence's decision to involve Ogyaba

Beyond his grievance with the journalist, Bishop Obinim also aired frustration over his wife's decision to confide in Prophet Ogyaba rather than turning to family or church elders.

He questioned what purpose sharing the marital dispute with Ogyaba served, particularly given that the prophet subsequently went public with the details.

"I don't know why Florence even took my issue to Ogyaba. Why didn't she take the case to any other person? My mother, father, and church members are there, and she didn't report to anyone other than Ogyaba," he said.
"She told Ogyaba the issue for him to do what, exactly? Because when she informed Ogyaba of the issue, he came on social media to disgrace me. They are killing me slowly," he added.
