Dispute with Apoutchou National: Pastor Wilfried Zahui Chooses Forgiveness

Pastor Wilfried Amagou Zahui said in a statement published on October 21, 2026, that he wants to put his dispute with influencer Apoutchou National behind him. He said his displeasure stemmed from the unauthorized publication of images showing his luxury vehicles, and that he forgives the influencer, whom he affectionately calls his son. Zahui also apologized in case his reactions had hurt Apoutchou and expressed regret to the Christian community and Ivorian authorities over the tensions caused. The dispute comes as the pastor remains under judicial supervision in a money-laundering investigation.
