'I can never touch someone's wife' - Archbishop Adonten Boateng denies affair with Obaapa Christy

Archbishop Kofi Adonten Boateng, who has been accused of having an affair with gospel musician Obaapa Christy, has once again addressed the issue.

This marks the second time the US-based pastor has spoken out about the alleged affair, which he says has taken a toll on him.

The controversy began after Pastor Love, Obaapa Christy’s husband, accused her of being promiscuous during their marriage and claimed she had been cheating with several men of God, including Archbishop Adonten Boateng.

Following these accusations, the Archbishop denied any romantic involvement, lamenting how his enemies seemed to rejoice in the situation.

Currently in Ghana, Archbishop Boateng has reiterated in a recent interview with Kingdom FM’s Fiifi Pratt that he and Obaapa Christy never had a love affair.

He has emphasised that their relationship was purely platonic, adding that it was her music that helped him through his difficult phase in life.

“There was a difficult time in my life, and it was Obaapa Christy’s songs that I cried with. In this life, there are two things no man should touch: someone else’s belongings and someone else’s wife. It doesn’t end well,” he stated.

He affirmed his commitment to his own marriage, saying, “I’ve got a wife; I cannot go after someone else’s. I am young and handsome, so I definitely I'll have someone.”

Discussing how he met Obaapa Christy, he explained, “I met a music producer and asked for gospel musicians to grace an event of mine. He invited Obaapa Christy and others. When she came, I treated her with respect and care, just as I do for everyone. I love people and humanity.”

Despite the allegations from Pastor Love, Archbishop Boateng expressed his respect for him.

“When it comes to longevity in ministry, I can boldly say that I am Pastor Love’s child, so I’ll treat this issue with the utmost respect. Every marriage has its ups and downs. My heart goes out to Pastor Love; wherever he is, I pray he finds peace and a way through this,” he concluded.

Pastor Love's apology to the Men of God he accused

Pastor Love, a few weeks after his outbursts, issued two separate apologies: one to Archbishop Adonten Boateng and Osofo Kyiri Abosom, whom he accused of being involved with his ex-wife.

He said his comments stemmed from anger and stressed that, as a human, he is prone to making mistakes.
