Ghanaian musician **Mzbel** has moved to set the record straight following growing public debate over the arrest of **Prophet Fire Oja**, insisting that legal action against the preacher is ongoing and grounded in due process.
In a public statement, the award-winning artist, born **Nana Ekua Amoah**, dismissed claims suggesting the pastor was never arrested or questioned by the police, describing such assertions as false and misleading.
Mzbel confirmed that the **Ghana Police Service formally invited, arrested, and interrogated** Prophet Fire Oja over alleged defamatory remarks made against her. According to her, the preacher admitted during questioning that he did not know her personally and conceded that his statements about her were wrong.
She disclosed that the pastor has since been **charged**, with the matter currently undergoing the necessary legal processes ahead of court proceedings. The musician clarified that his release on bail followed standard police procedures and does not invalidate the case.
Addressing public speculation, Mzbel stressed that her actions were not motivated by personal vendetta but by a desire to defend her **reputation, integrity, and mental health**.
She also used the opportunity to educate the public on their legal rights, noting that anyone who is defamed has the option to seek redress through lawful means.
> “Justice is a right, not a privilege,” she said, adding that individuals do not need wealth, influence, or political power to report wrongdoing.
Mzbel further highlighted the role of the **Ghana Police Service** in protecting all citizens, regardless of social standing, and expressed appreciation to the service for its professionalism throughout the process.
She concluded by encouraging the public to stand for truth and accountability, reaffirming her confidence in the legal system as the case moves toward court.
