'Stay away from my funeral' - Bishop Obinim cautions wife, family

Founder of the International God's Way Church, Bishop Daniel Obinim, in a shocking declaration, has publicly outlined his burial arrangements when he passes on.

In an emphatic address to his church congregants, he insisted that only his biological children and church members should handle his funeral rites.

According to a video shared by @askghme on X and sighted by GhanaWeb on June 5, 2026, he explicitly excluded his wife, Florence Obinim, and extended family from taking charge.

“Let this June 4, 2026, video be on record. when I die, only my biological children and the Abroso Family (his church congregants) should bury me. I have excluded my family, including my wife, Florence Obinim. Do you know how marriage is? Never place your expectations on marriage,” he said.

He further charged his family not to take over his funeral arrangements.

Although he asked them to attend, he stressed that he did not want any family member to assume control of the funeral.

“I am telling you today that the day I die, no member of the Obinim family should come close to my funeral. Don’t come and fight over dates. You may attend, but don’t come and do what you like.

"The only people who can fix my funeral dates and make arrangements are my biological family and the Abroso Family. If I die before my wife, she should not be part of the funeral arrangements,” he stressed.
