Popular Ghanaian gospel singer and evangelist Diana Asamoah has expressed her displeasure with religious leaders in Ghana who sell herbal drinks and concoctions such as “Yesu Mogya” sobolo in churches.
In an interview on Angel FM, Diana expressed concern over how some pastors are allegedly selling sobolo and other concoctions to church members, claiming they have spiritual benefits. According to her, these pastors market the sobolo as “blood” or healing drinks, even though the FDA hasn’t tested or approved them for consumption.
“I’m begging the FDA to visit churches across the country,” she said. “They need to inspect what is being sold in God’s name and make sure it’s not causing harm to innocent people.”
She didn’t sugarcoat words, accusing some pastors of profiteering from their church members at the detriment of their health. Diana Asamoah warned that many people have reportedly developed serious health conditions, such as diabetes, from consuming these so-called spiritual drinks.
“If you want to sell sobolo in your church, at least bring in medical doctors to test your members,” she advised. “Check their blood sugar and health status before handing them anything to drink.”
The gospel star’s comments have sparked conversation across social media, with many Ghanaians commending her for speaking out. Others are now questioning how such practices have been allowed to go unchecked for so long in some churches.
Diana’s passionate call to action has placed the spotlight on the responsibilities of both the FDA and religious leaders in protecting public health.
