Touching on if Jehovah Witnesses were angry when mentioned them in his song. Kofi Kinaata disclosed that, they were even happy.
“They were even happy. You know when members from Jehovah Witness come around, some of us always ran away. I’ve been there before, and am not proud of that. Nowadays when they are coming, I listen; it’s the gospel.
