Videos that appear to challenge social or religious norms<\/a> frequently gain traction online. When these clips circulate without a clear context, they can provoke heated reactions and lead to assumptions about the people or communities involved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A popular Facebook influencer, Solomon Buchi, shared<\/a> a video (archived here<\/a>) claiming it shows a church service in Ghana where women attend in bikinis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The user first played the video, which appeared above his face as he waited for it to finish. The clip showed four women in undergarments among a congregation of fully dressed people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the footage continued, the women moved through the seated crowd toward the stage. One of them took the microphone and said they came to testify and praise God. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They sang briefly before the clip switched back to showing the Facebook user, who criticised the act. He described it as a culture that contradicts Christian standards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

His explanation of the footage showed that he believed the scene came from a church in Ghana and reflected how people there worship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of Mar. 9, 2026, DUBAWA found that the clip had generated 5,600 likes, 1,800 comments, and 368 shares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most Facebook users in the comments section expressed disdain for the claim, while others questioned it and sought more details due to scepticism. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

@Faustina Donkor<\/a> asked, \u201c In Ghana, How?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

@Blossom Sampson<\/a> replied, \u201cThese are all cult groups in the name of the church. It’s high time we start arresting these folks.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

@Victor Segs <\/a>demanded more proof, \u201cHow do you know that it’s a church? Anyone can arrange what appears to be a church service anywhere and create their own content. Can you tell us the name of this church and the pastor?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We observed that the same claim was found here<\/a>, here<\/a>, here<\/a>, here<\/a>, here<\/a>, and here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The religious nature of the claim and the country involved led DUBAWA to investigate it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Verification<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

DUBAWA submitted the video to InVID<\/a> to extract keyframes and then ran a reverse image search.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The search returned similar social media posts that claimed<\/a> the scene showed an activity in a church in Ghana. We also located the same video on TikTok<\/a> with the caption: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPastor Blinks preaching about wearing a bikini to church using Adam and Eve as a reference point.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although this was not the exact scene shared by the Facebook user, it showed the same setting and the same four women dressed in undergarments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also noticed a disclaimer attached to the video that read, \u201cThis is fiction, not real.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To obtain stronger evidence, we reviewed the video again and saw a banner in the church with the inscription, \u201cEnd Time Church of Blinks.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DUBAWA searched this phrase on Google and found a YouTube page<\/a> called Blinks TV. The page contained several videos that showed women in undergarments, including the exact clip shared <\/a>by the Facebook user who claimed the footage came from a church in Ghana.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, we found that the video was uploaded two years ago. The page description also stated that it is an entertainment channel that provides educational and informational content through movies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

DUBAWA traced the video to an entertainment channel on YouTube. We found no evidence that the scene took place in a church in Ghana. Therefore, the claim is false.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
