Accra, Ghana – Bishop Salifu Amoako, leader of Alive Chapel International (ACI), has voiced his deep disappointment over an altercation involving some of his church members and a journalist following a recent court hearing. The incident occurred on Thursday, 17 October 2024, after a court session regarding the fatal accident involving the pastor’s 16-year-old son, which resulted in the deaths of two young girls in East Legon.
Reports indicate that members of the church allegedly attacked a journalist from the EIB Network who was covering the case. Addressing the issue during his Sunday sermon on 20 October 2024, Bishop Amoako condemned the actions of his congregants, calling them “disgraceful” and urging them to exercise self-restraint and maturity in the face of adversity.
“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,” Amoako said in a video shared by Citi News.
The bishop further expressed his frustration over how the actions of his followers have worsened his already challenging situation. “Do you know the damage you have done in my life? Now I am fighting what has happened to me, and the media is fighting me. The case is now in the court. We don’t go to court to fight, but we go there to interpret the law,” he explained.
Bishop Amoako’s son is currently facing legal proceedings for his involvement in the tragic accident that occurred on 12 October 2024, when his vehicle collided with another car. This resulted in a fatal fire that claimed the lives of Justine Agbenu and Maame Dwomoh. The case has drawn significant media attention, further intensifying the pastor’s battles.
During the sermon, Bishop Amoako warned his church members about the legal risks they faced as a result of their behavior outside the courtroom. “Some of you were lucky that you were not arrested. Some of you went there to mess up. By now, you should be in jail. I have not called you to come and fight for me,” he stated, making it clear that he expects his congregation to refrain from further involvement in the legal process.
His message was a stern reminder for his followers to prioritize peace, cautioning them to avoid any actions that could lead to additional trouble with the law.
The court case is still ongoing, and Bishop Amoako has called on his church members to allow the legal process to unfold without interference or unnecessary conflict.
