Ofori Amponsah in July 2012, noted that he had received the calling of God to be a pastor. He quit music to become a full-time Pastor at the Holy Grounds Sanctuary but announced earlier this year his decision to return to secular music.
He insisted that it would not conflict with his work as a Pastor and has subsequently released a love song titled, undefined.
However, Papa Shee in an interview with ghanagist from his American residence said Ofori cannot serve two masters.
“I pray that God touches him [Ofori Amponsah] to get the conviction… You cannot serve two masters. It is impossible. If our brother has turned to the world, we must pray for him so he would recind his decision. It’s not easy to be a Christian. Jesus said if we want to follow him, we must deny ourselves and carry the cross. As a Christian, you will go to the wilderness but you should be able to stand. Jesus was able to defeat the devil,” he advised.
