Speaking in a video shared by Ghana Eye on August 30, 2026, the preacher, whose marriage to popular marriage counsellor Charlotte Oduro had ended, recounted how he found himself standing at the Nima Overhead, overwhelmed by his experiences and questioning God and his circumstances.
According to Ghana Web, the situation became particularly difficult for Apostle Oduro because he felt he had endured numerous challenges despite not deliberately bringing those problems upon himself. He shared that while standing on the overhead and contemplating suicide, he experienced what he described as God speaking directly to him. This divine encounter led him to name his first book 'Double Man Anointing' as he felt a renewed sense of purpose and blessing.
Apostle Oduro disclosed that at the time, he also heard what he described as an audible voice urging him to end his life. He recounted hearing a voice that said, 'Kill yourself because you're tired. It's like you're cursed and you don't have any helper.' He disclosed that he had reached a point where he was prepared to jump from the overhead or put himself in the path of a vehicle before hearing God's reassuring voice.
The preacher said the experience ultimately influenced his understanding of the importance of spiritual strength during difficult periods. He believes that during crucial times, people need 'double oil, double power and strength to push hard.' This concept of 'double oil' has since become an important part of his ministry and personal testimony, elevating his faith and resilience.
