Daniel Obinim, also known as Bishop Obinim or
Angel Obinim (b. 29 August, 1977), is a Ghanaian
pastor known for self-proclaimed spiritual powers
and extreme Christian practices [1] which have often
sparked national outrage for infringement on rights
of church members. Many have accused him of being
a bogus preacher. Obinim is the Head Pastor of the
International Godsway Ministries.

Controversies
Edit
Stepping on pregnant woman
Edit
In 2014 Obinim was seen on television stepping on
the belly of a pregnant woman to exorcise her.[2][3]
[4] This led the Amnesty International in Ghana to call
for his prosecution for assault.[5]
Declarations
Edit
Daniel Obinim has made several public controversial
declarations.[6] He declared he was an angel, which
led to the name "Angel Obinim" given to him by his
church. He also seemed to have conjured a passport
for a church member who lost his. In 2016, he told
his church he could transform himself and others
into objects and animals. Jon Benjamin, the British
High Commissioner to Ghana, ridiculed him for these
claims over Twitter.[7]
2016 flogging case
Edit
Obinim in August 2016 publicly flogged two
teenagers, one of whom was pregnant, on live
television, accusing them of fornicating and
conspiring to abort a pregnancy, leading to public
outcry,[8] after the video also went viral on social
media. Ghana's Minister of Gender, Children, and
Social Protection Nana Oye Lithur herself led a
campaign for his arrest, by lodging a complaint to the
Ghana Police Service Domestic Violence and Victims’
Support Unit (DOVVSU)
.[9] He was subsequently arrested.
Following the arrest, hundreds of his church
members besieged the police station where he was
held to demand his release, a move that was seen to
be the first of its kind involving a religious leader.
They also threatened not to vote for the current
government in Ghana's upcoming election in
December 2016 if Obinim is not released.[10] The
protesters were dispersed with a water cannon.[11]

So, how has his ministry changed lives? How many drunkards and prostitutes have been delivered from their sins through him? What values has he added to his society? Does flogging people deliver them from sinning?
