Promise Obinim, the youngest son of Bishop Daniel Obinim and gospel musician Florence Obinim, recently went live on social media and displayed his new neck tattoo to viewers watching from Spain. The tattoo first surfaced in a TikTok video filmed on Saturday, September 19, 2026, showing Promise rapping energetically in his Spain apartment while the fresh ink stayed clearly visible on his neck. The clip quickly drew attention from Ghanaians who recognised him as Bishop Obinim's son.
Reactions to Promise's tattoo ranged from concern to mockery, with one user writing that pain can make a person do things and noting the new tattoo. Others linked the tattoo to the emotional strain of his parents' ongoing divorce. Promise's parents are currently in the middle of a public divorce after 22 years of marriage. Reports emerged in early September 2026 that Florence's family returned her "Tiri Nsa," the traditional token symbolising the end of a union.
During a later live session, Promise once again displayed the tattoo to his audience. A netizen commented on the post, telling him he should advise his father instead of focusing on his appearance. Promise did not take the comment lightly. He responded directly, warning that if the netizen repeated the same words to him in person, he would smack him.
The exchange added to the wave of online reactions already trailing Promise's recent social media activity. In a leaked audio that surfaced days later, Bishop Obinim spoke candidly about the marriage breakdown, admitting to multiple affairs and accusing Florence of neglecting household duties. He has since laid out conditions for reconciliation, including that she publicly apologise and distance herself from certain associates.
Florence Obinim has since dropped the "Obinim" surname from her social media pages, rebranding as Lioness Ministries. The move reportedly followed a direct request from Bishop Obinim, who had publicly insisted she stop using his name following their separation. Florence had earlier said in an interview that she was willing to let go of the surname, adding that a person's identity and calling matter more than a name.
Promise's warning to the netizen has sparked a fresh wave of reactions online, with many Ghanaians weighing in on the issue. Some have expressed concern over Promise's response, while others have defended his right to stand up for himself. The incident has also raised questions about the impact of social media on celebrities and their families.
The Obinim family has been in the news recently due to their highly publicised divorce. Bishop Obinim and Florence Obinim have been married for 22 years, and their separation has been a major topic of discussion in Ghana's entertainment scene. Promise's recent social media activity has only added to the scrutiny, with many Ghanaians eager to see how the situation unfolds.
