Pastor Mensa Otabil, the General Overseer and the founder of the International Central Gospel Church (ICGC) has admitted never to talk about Ghanaian meals and how it’s prepared because of numerous slams he got on the social media when he spoke about how unhygienically they prepare their foods.
“Any food that if you have to eat you’ll have to punish yourself like this, what’s the essence of it? And the annoying thing is when you’re pounding, the sweat will be going in and will be mixed. Even in the mortar, there all kinds of bacteria, 5 years and we are still pounding and people will say that’s what we like.”
On social media, it was said that the pastor was advertising for the neat fufu producers while others also took his words as an insult and demanded an apology from the pastor for speaking about their fufu preparation as unhygienic when they have been able to invent the machine purposely for the fufu preparation.

Speaking at “2018 Springboard Global Convocation” in Accra yesterday, said he will never talk about Ghanaian food again.
He said, ” I once got into trouble for talking about fufu. Now I know people have passion when it comes to their food, especially fufu so when you say anything negative about it, it’s as if you have dropped an atomic bomb on their precious carbohydrate. So I’m not going to talk about it again. You can eat all you want.”
