Ghanaian preacher and founder of Anointed Palace Chapel, Rev Obofour, has come under intense public criticism after a video showing an awkward moment between him and his wife, Queen Ciara, circulated widely on social media.
In the clip, which many described as a “loved-up” moment gone wrong, Rev Obofour appeared distracted and largely unresponsive to his wife’s affectionate gestures—an observation that quickly reignited ongoing rumours about alleged marital challenges.
Video Sparks Public Backlash
The controversial video shows Queen Ciara resting her head on her husband’s lap while gently rubbing his chest as Nigerian singer CKay’s Love Nwantiti plays in the background. However, Rev Obofour is seen focused on his mobile phone throughout the moment, prompting netizens to accuse him of ignoring his wife.
Many social media users interpreted his apparent lack of engagement as a sign of emotional distance, with critics describing the interaction as uncomfortable and unbalanced. The video has since attracted thousands of comments across platforms, with opinions sharply divided.
Background: Dating Rumours Fuel Speculation
The renewed scrutiny follows recent controversy involving businesswoman Maame Sika, who sparked speculation about a possible relationship with Rev Obofour. On February 1, 2026, she posted a birthday message celebrating the pastor, alongside a photo of them together, which quickly went viral.
In subsequent posts, Maame Sika referred to herself as “Sofo Maame” (pastor’s wife) and shared additional content linked to Rev Obofour, further fueling rumours of an alleged extramarital affair.
Couple Previously Addressed Allegations
In response to the claims, Rev Obofour and Queen Ciara appeared in a separate TikTok video with controversial spiritual leader Ajagurajah, where they publicly dismissed the rumours. Queen Ciara stated firmly that she remains the only woman in her husband’s life and highlighted the years of gifts, support, and affection she has received throughout their 16-year marriage.
During the exchange, Queen Ciara asked her husband to reaffirm his love for her, a moment that ended in a public display of affection admired by viewers at the time.
Public Reactions Intensify
Despite earlier efforts to shut down speculation, the latest video has once again drawn heavy criticism. Social media users questioned Rev Obofour’s body language, with some suggesting emotional detachment, while others urged Queen Ciara to prioritise her dignity and self-worth.
Several commenters expressed concern over what they perceived as performative affection, while others warned against reading too much into a brief moment captured on camera.
Rev Obofour Responds to Critics
In a separate incident reported earlier, Rev Obofour lashed out at a follower during a TikTok Live session after being questioned about the alleged relationship with Maame Sika. The preacher reportedly rebuked the individual and warned against interfering in his private life, insisting that rumours surrounding his marriage were unfounded.
Ongoing Debate
The situation has continued to spark broader conversations online about privacy, public marriages, and the pressure placed on couples in the public eye. While some Ghanaians have called for restraint and respect, others remain critical, insisting that public figures must expect scrutiny when sharing personal moments online.
As discussions persist, neither Rev Obofour nor Queen Ciara has issued a fresh statement addressing the latest viral clip.
