A protégé of renowned Ghanaian pastor, Prophet Ogyaba, has confirmed that the preacher charges $300, an equivalent of GH¢4,568.50 as a consultation fee at his church.

Ogyaba's junior pastor justifies $300 charge

During his interaction with De God Son, he defended the fees charged by the preacher, arguing that pastors provide a service and deserve to be compensated. He referenced Matthew 10:8, which states:

"Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give."

However, he dismissed the verse as impractical, pointing out that essential church resources—such as speakers, chairs, and microphones—are not given for free but purchased, necessitating financial support to sustain the church's operations. He made the remarks in the thirteenth minute of the video.
