Rev. Dr. Ken in ?Paradise?

Thu, 12 Feb 2004 Source: Chronicle

The lifestyle of the self-imposed head pastor of Believers Evangelical Church (BEC) in Accra, Rev. Dr Ken has become a nuisance to the residents at Ada Junction block factory road near Teshie Twebrewo. Rev. Dr. Ken, who is believed to be a Nigerian, gets drunk and disturbs the residents in the area at night. His behaviour, according to the residents, does not set a good standard for the youth in the area to emulate.

Chronicle investigation indicated that Rev. Ken was a charlatan who went around deceiving people that he possessed a prophetic power to heal the sick and as a result, extorted money from them.

It was also established by the paper that there was no church called Believers Evangelical Church which the wife Naa Merley claimed was situated near the Home Touch Restaurant by the 37 Military Hospital.

At one moment, Rev. Ken got so drunk that he fell down at the entrance of his house, thus drawing a huge crowd to the scene.

The assemblyman of the area, Mr. Daniel Ablorh Anang said since Rev. Ken came to the area, his life- style had attracted the attention of the police.

Mr. Anang maintained that the behaviour of Rev. Ken was so irritating that, the police should take action against him.

Mr. Anang alleged that, he suspected Rev. Ken to be a drug dealer.

But the wife of Rev. Ken, Naa Merley said the husband?s behaviour was due to frustrations and as a result, the elders of the church had suspended him.
