Bishop Salifu Amoako, the Founder and General Overseer of Alive Chapel International Ministry, has issued a heartfelt apology to the families of two girls who tragically lost their lives in an accident in East Legon.
In a video sighted by GhanaWeb, the man of God, whose son was involved in the incident, asked for forgiveness and expressed deep remorse for the tragic event.
He explained that he has been struggling to come to terms with what happened and requested mercy from the families.
“I, Salifu Amoako, would like to appeal to the families to forgive me and have mercy on me. I ask that God comforts you in this difficult time and I pray that he strengthens you.
“I also want to appeal to Ghanaians and Pastors based both in Ghana and beyond to help me plead with the bereaved families. I can’t explain myself because I’m still trying to understand how the whole incident happened. I have lost all my strength from crying. I’m begging the entire families to have comfort in God. Mother of the deceased children, be strong,” Bishop Amoako said amid tears while on his knees.
Meanwhile, Bishop Salifu Amoako, his wife Mouha Amoako, and a sales assistant named Linda Bonsu Prempeh, have been accused of negligence.
The sales assistant allegedly gave the keys to the vehicle involved in the accident to the boy, knowing that he was underage and it was illegal for him to drive.
On Wednesday, October 16, 2024, prosecutors charged the three with various crimes and released them on bail for GH¢150,000 after they pleaded not guilty.
