'I dated a 28-year-old at age 14' - Archbishop Agyinasare recounts

Founder of Perez Chapel International, Archbishop Dr Charles Agyinasare, has opened up about the lifestyle he lived in the early stages of his life before answering his call into ministry.

In an interview with Borla Ray monitored by GhanaWeb on April 17, 2026, Archbishop Agyinasare revealed that he began engaging in intimate relationships at a young age, adding that he once dated a woman who was twice his age.

“You see, it was exciting as a young man to get high and misbehave, chasing girls and getting into fights. I was into drugs, tobacco, and alcohol; I was very lustful.

“When I was 14, my girlfriend was 28. My parents divorced when I was seven, and at about age 12, my father was transferred to Tamale, so I stayed in Accra with my sister,” he said.

Archbishop Agyinasare also recounted how he got a girl pregnant at a young age, which resulted in an abortion.

“I had my first abortion at the age of 14 with a girl who was about 16 years old. There were several girls in my life. In fact, the girl who later led me to church was someone I was pursuing, and I was also interested in her senior sister. She told me her boyfriend was Jesus Christ.

“So, I followed her to church. That day, I remember I was high on marijuana. I sat at the back, waiting for the service to end so I could take the girl along. But for the first time in my life, there was an altar call for those who wanted to receive Jesus and repent of their sins,” he added.
