Renowned Ghanaian gospel singer and evangelist, Diana Asamoah, has raised concerns over the growing trend of churches selling food and drinks—particularly sobolo—without regulatory approval.
Speaking on her radio show aired on Accra-based Angel FM, the Anopa Wim hitmaker called on the Food and Drugs Authority (FDA) to step in and take decisive action against pastors and religious leaders engaged in these practices.
She criticized the sale of unverified food items within church premises, warning that it could endanger the health of unsuspecting congregants who often trust their spiritual leaders without question.
“These pastors are selling things like sobolo to their members without FDA approval. It’s wrong and dangerous,” she stated. “The FDA must act swiftly to protect lives.”
Her comments reflect a growing concern among health professionals and the public about unregulated food sales tied to religious gatherings, which may expose people to potential health hazards under the guise of faith and healing.
