Nigeria Afrobeats musician Mr Eazi has told Sonnie Badu that there is nothing wrong with the President's directive to close down churches too with the ban since God is Omnipresent.

" I think the presence of God is not limited to the church building, also altars can be in your Bedroom! There was no internet in Solomon’s time! Now via TV, Radio, Books, Live Feed the spirit of God stays moving beyond physical contact! Let us stand in Faith whilst obeying the laws of our land & the wisdom God has given to us Via our scientists!” Mr. Eazi said.

The US-based Ghanaian gospel musician Sonnie Badu joined the argument that churches should not be closed down in the time of the Coronavirus pandemic in Ghana, saying that it was wrong for the President to close down the "altar" (referring to the church). 

Using a bible verse in 2 Chronicles 20:9 to back his claim, he said God will listen to our prayers if the altar is ‘activated’. He made the statement on his Instagram page saying "

'Should evil come upon us, the sword, or judgment, or pestilence, or famine, we will stand before this house and before You (for Your name is in this house) and cry to You in our distress, and You will hear and deliver us.'

God will hear us .. let the church unite and fight together.”
