Controversial Ghanaian rapper Wanlov the
Kubolor has slammed boxer Ayitey Powers for
running to Prophet T.B. Joshua's Synagogue
Church of All Nations (SCOAN) to seek deliverance ahead of the
much-anticipated bout with Bukom Banku.
In an interview with NEWS-ONE, the barefoot-
walking musician said he considered Ayitey
Powers as a "weak spirited" boxer who deserves
whipping from Bukom Banku.
"I did not care if Bukom or Powers won till
Powers went to Joshua. Now, I want Bukom to
lash him with a cane. Powers is a weak spirited
boxer," he stated.
The Kubolor man wondered why the popular
boxer has suddenly turned to God for succour
as if he did not know God existed before.
"Who told him God cares about boxing or
soccer?" Wanlov asked rhetorically, noting with
emphasis that "boxing is boxing and religion is
not part of it."
Ayitey Powers went through a drama-filled
deliverance session at Prophet T.B. Joshua's
Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN) in
Nigeria during one of their Sunday services.
He flew all the way from Ghana to Nigeria to
seek divine intervention before the much-
promoted fight with Bukom Banku, another
loud-mouthed boxer.
That move, according to Wanlov, was a sign of
weakness on the part of Powers.
"I support Bukom Banku in this bout. A boxer
needs plenty training, strength and small luck,"
he added.
The bout which has been nicknamed 'Judgment
Night' is slated for April 18, 2014, at the Accra
Sports Stadium.
As it stands now, what is not clear is whether
the fight would still come on as planned in spite
of Ayittey Powers' excuse for another date to be
fixed for each of them to test their strength
against the other.
