But speaking on Neat FM’s , Obour said he was only resting having been tired after training so hard to reduce his weight.

“On Sunday I did my usual exercise but I was tired at some point and decided to relax on the floor and rest before I realized pictures was all over the internet that I collapsed. I never collapsed! I was just tired and I was resting… Frankly speaking, I have noticed how most Ghanaians love me, they worry about me and my health. I have noticed all their concerns about my weight and tummy. I don’t want to disappoint all those who love me and are worried about me so I have started a strong workout routine to reduce my weight and get in shape,” he stated.

Obour came under heavy criticism from a section of the public to lose weight after a photograph of him looking "pregnant" went viral on social media.

He is set to start a new Fitness reality show which will be launched on Friday August at Rockstones Office in collaboration with 4Syte TV.
