Bishop Salifu Amoako, the father of the 16-year-old boy involved in the tragic accident that claimed the lives of two young girls in East Legon on Saturday, October 12, has condemned the actions of some members of his church. These individuals assaulted a reporter from EIB Network after court proceedings on Thursday, October 17, 2024.
Addressing his congregation at Alive Chapel International on Sunday, October 20, Bishop Amoako expressed regret over the incident and emphasized the importance of restraint and understanding during challenging times. He urged his followers to embrace compassion and foster dialogue, reminding the community to approach the situation with empathy and consider all perspectives surrounding the tragic event.
“Control yourselves, ACI family, I urge you to have self-control. Some of you came to the court to disgrace me there. You didn’t behave wisely. You have added more battles to my battles already. What you came to do at the court is very disgraceful. You shouldn’t have done that.
“Do you realize the damage you have caused in my life? I am now fighting against what has happened to me, and the media is also against me. The case is currently in court. We don’t go to court to fight; we go there to interpret the law. Some of you were fortunate not to be arrested, while others chose to cause trouble. By now, you should be in jail. I haven’t asked you to come and fight for me. Let me be clear: I have not called you to come and fight for me,” he stated.
