The Ashanti Regional Secretary of the Ghana Blind Union (GBU), Charles Ofori Baidoo has recounted a sad incident in 2013 that has made him stop going to church.
In an interview on a Kumasi-based Ultimate Fm monitored by MyNewsGh.com, the visually impaired man said, that persons who sometimes profess to be spiritually strong in the Christian faith act in shocking ways that go beyond human comprehension.
Talking about his own ordeals, Mr. Ofori Baidoo recounts how his own colleague who he was studying with at Winneba in the Central Region abandoned him halfway while assisting him to a destination only to go join a prayer group on a football pitch.
“We go through a lot of bad situations, I can vividly recall, once a colleague of mine left me to take care of myself while moving with him across a field to my location. He was assisting me to my destination only to leave me halfway in order to join a group to pray. He just left me helpless, I had to question his Christianity and level of compassion”
“Just last week, we were at a church to have an advocacy and seek assistance for our union, a lady close by heard me speaking on the phone seeking assistance but this lady who was going to the same church with me, failed to assist me. She only retorted after knowing that I was visually impaired said, these are the people it was announced they were coming to church. When I got the opportunity in the church to speak, I talked about it and questioned the compassion of Christians these days”, he lamented.
