Pastor cuts short a lady's testimony
Earlier, YEN.com.gh reported that a Ghanaian pastor angrily cut short a young lady's testimony in his church.
This was after the young lady shared a testimony of how a man she had met helped her rent a three-bedroom apartment.
This prompted the pastor to probe further into the relationship between the lady and the man.
He got angry at the lady's testimony, angrily grabbed the microphone and beckoned her to leave the altar.
The pastor explained that he does not condone promiscuity.
