Try out clicking on the element using one of following methods

Method 1:

Actions action = new Actions(driver);
action.moveToElement(<your WebElement>).click().perform();

Method 2:

JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
js.executeScript("arguments[0].click();", <your WebElement>);

These are just workarounds. Please provide the exception that you are getting while performing the normal selenium click operation may be that can help you find an answer.

Your xpath is broken: opening apostrophe is missing for an id value:

"//*[@id='opbox-listing']/div/div/section[2]/section/article[5]/div/div/div[2]/h2/a"
