Host of the flagship advocacy programme Obra on Kumasi-based Nhyira FM, Ohemaa Benewaa, also known as Prophetess Ohemaa Be, has celebrated her birthday with an outreach event dubbed The Threshold at Unity Church International in Kumasi.
The event brought together traditional leaders, Christian leaders, and prominent figures from the media and music industries to celebrate empowerment, leadership, growth, and positive social impact.
The gathering was held under the theme based on Psalm 84:10: “I would rather stand at the threshold of the house of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked.”
The programme featured moments of prayer, thanksgiving, and worship, with performances led by gospel musicians including Elder Mireku, Gifty Donkor, Royal Prophet Nana Baffour, and Osuani Oteng.
Participants from various professional and community backgrounds also engaged in networking aimed at sustaining the outreach’s impact beyond the event.
More than 200 clothing items, along with assorted food supplies, were distributed to widows as part of the initiative, which aimed to provide relief and reinforce the theme of service and care.
Ohemaa Benewaa expressed gratitude to God for her life and said the milestone inspired her to organise the outreach as an act of thanksgiving and support for vulnerable groups.
She noted that she has always been committed to supporting widows and decided to expand her efforts this year.
She also called on well-meaning individuals to use special occasions such as birthdays and festive celebrations to support widows, orphans, and vulnerable people in society.
Seizing the moment, she launched the Women’s Wave Empowerment, a platform designed to create open dialogue on social and relationship issues affecting women. The initiative seeks to equip women with the knowledge and confidence needed to make informed life choices.
She urged women to build financial and personal independence rather than relying solely on partners for support. For those yet to enter relationships, she advised patience and careful decision-making.
Beneficiaries of the outreach expressed gratitude for the support, describing it as timely and impactful.
