Anyone who answers a call by saying 'hello' is going straight to hell - Popular Ghanaian pastor

A popular Ghanaian musician turned pastor boggled the minds of many Ghanaians after he stated in a recent interview that people who begin telephone conversations with the usual 'Hello' are bound for hell.

The pastor, identified simply as Papa Shee is known for making such intriguing comments. According to the evangelist, the devil (satan) is very clever, and he puts men into tight corners always.

The pastor who was popular with this song, ‘Koyon so’ said so with his reason being the term Hello means “Hell oo”.

According to him, whoever answers a call by saying ‘hello’ is bound for hellfire, local news platform, Peace FM reports.

He further added that for him, he responds to his calls with the words, ‘Hallelujah’ or ‘Amen’ since he knows the implication of the word ‘hello’.

“The Enemy is very crafty. You can say ‘praise the Lord, or Amen or Good morning, Good afternoon when you receive a call. Words are very powerful.

The enemy is very crafty. Hello, and other words are all terms the devil has devised. Hello means ‘HELL OOO’, Evangelist Papa Shee added.
