Notably, he emphasized that the resources gathered from collections and earnings from church events are reinvested, underlining the acquisition of a new pair of shoes as an example, purchased with funds generated from church offerings.
In a clear and unequivocal statement, Reverend Obofour challenged the notion that any clergyman becomes wealthy independently.
He asserted that no religious leader can be inherently affluent but rather accrues prosperity through the financial contributions made by their followers.

According to his assertion, these offerings are channelled into various business ventures, ultimately leading to their financial success.
