Rev. Owusu Bempah Says The Drink That His Wife Took Was A Grapefruit Drink And Not ‘Akpeteshie’

Following a viral report that Rev. Isaac Owusu Bempah’s new wife, Abena Animah took an alcoholic drink before their wedding, the ‘Man of God’ has jumped in to defend her.

Rev. Owusu Bempah disclosed that his wife has never tasted alcoholic drink before.

“My wife doesn’t drink alcohol; in fact, she hates it and has never tasted it before. I decided not to pay attention to this false report because it’s unnecessary. On that fateful day, my wife neither drank nor ate anything alcoholic.

“The ceremony was supposed to come off in the morning but because of some issues, it had to happen in the afternoon and because we had it in the afternoon, I told my wife to eat something before but she declined and said she would prefer a soft drink and so the drink she took that day was grapefruit drink and after she tasted it she asked for more because it was sweet and that is why people around her were surprised and not because she drank alcohol”, he said.

The video which is 14 seconds displayed a lady pouring the substance purported to be an alcohol from a container.

When the lady asked if the quantity is okay for her, she answered: “No add some more” to the amazement of other women in the room who exclaimed, “Eeeiii Osofo Maame!”

The General Overseer of Glorious Word Power Ministry International, Prophet Isaac Owusu Bempah, remarried Abena Animah in a private ceremony in Accra a week ago.
