Netizens have reacted with shock and disbelief to the video, expressing amazement at the unusual level of spirituality being applied even in matters where applying science makes more sense.
Gospel musician Diana Asamoah has also called on the FDA to investigate pastors selling spiritual beverages, warning that some of these products have been consumed without safety checks and could risk people’s health.
A video spotted by YEN.com.gh shows a house owner placing a spiritual substance, popularly known as Sobolo or Miraculous Yesu Mogya, inside two electricity meters. Each meter contained a portion of the substance, which the owner believes can slow down how fast the meters register electricity usage.
The bizarre act has left many in Ghana’s social media community both shocked and incredulous, highlighting the extent to which spiritual beliefs are being blended with everyday realities.
In the video, one observer expressed his disbelief in Twi:
“Eii, black mind. You attached Sobolo to the meters expecting them not to read more.”

Diana Asamoah exposes Pastors selling ‘Yesu Mogya’
In May 2025, Ghanaian gospel artist Diana Asamoah, during an interview with Angel FM, called on the FDA to monitor what some pastors are selling to congregants.
She accused some religious leaders of exploiting church members by selling untested spiritual drinks that could endanger public health.
Reports suggest that people consuming these beverages have developed serious health concerns, including diabetes.
“Some pastors claim to sell Sobolo, marketed as ‘blood,’ yet the FDA has not tested it to confirm it is safe for human consumption,” Asamoah stated.
“At the very least, have medical professionals check members’ health and blood sugar levels before giving them any beverages.”

Journalist blasts Adom Kyei over sobolo business
YEN.com.gh earlier reported that Ghanaian journalist Godsbrain Smart Nkansah, popularly known as Captain Smart, criticised Prophet Stephen Adom Kyei Duah, founder of the All Believers Church, for allegedly exploiting church members through business.
During the October 7 episode of Onua Maakye on Onua TV, Captain Smart denounced the pastor for selling a bissap beverage called Yesu Mogya (Blood of Jesus) to his congregation, a drink many believe has healing powers and delivers miracles.
The broadcast sparked heated debate among viewers and social media users about the ethics of mixing religion with commerce.
