The feud between Opambour and Maurice Ampaw originated from allegations made by Ampaw accusing Opambour of snatching his girlfriend and spreading false information about his health status.

Opambour vehemently denied these allegations, asserting that they were baseless and unfounded. He issued a stern warning to Ampaw, cautioning him to desist from attacking his character, threatening to invoke curses upon Ampaw's family if the attacks persisted.

Trigger for the Feud

Maurice Ampaw disclosed that the feud stemmed from Opambour's alleged involvement with his girlfriend when she sought healing for her ailing father at Opambour's church.

According to Ampaw, his girlfriend stayed with Opambour for several days and upon her return, claimed that Opambour had prophesied negatively about Ampaw, leading to the dissolution of their relationship.

However, Opambour refuted these claims, labeling them as irrational and baseless during a church service, and expressing his intention to cease joking during his services to address the matter seriously.

The dispute between Maurice Ampaw and Opambour continues to escalate, with legal action being considered by Ampaw to address the threats made against his family.
