The father of the 16-year-old boy who was involved in the tragic accident that killed two young girls at East Legon on Saturday, October 12, Bishop Salifu Amoako, has denounced the behaviour of some of his church members who attacked an EIB Network reporter following court proceedings on Thursday, October 17, 2024.
In his Sunday, October 20 address to his congregation at Alive Chapel International, Bishop Amoako regretted for the event and underlined the value of moderation and compassion in trying times.
He reminded the public to address the matter with care and take into account all viewpoints surrounding the unfortunate tragedy, and he asked his followers to embrace compassion and promote discourse.
“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 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.
“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. Now listen to me, I have not called you to come and fight for me,” he stated.
