Bishop Elisha Salifu Amoako, Founder and General Overseer of Alive Chapel International, has issued a heartfelt apology to the families of two young girls who tragically died in a car accident involving his son, Elrad Salifu Amoako. The accident, which occurred on October 12, has drawn significant public attention.
In a public statement, Bishop Amoako expressed deep sorrow and pleaded for God’s comfort for the grieving families.
“I am devastated, and no amount of words can reverse this tragic and horrible incident, but all that I’m asking is may God console you and your families. May God give you strength to heal in these trying moments,” he said, adding, “I am pleading with all Ghanaians to remember the bereaved families in their prayers.”
The police confirmed that both Bishop Amoako and his wife, Mouha Amoako, were arrested on October 15, facing charges related to the accident. Their son, Elrad, was driving a Jaguar SUV when it collided with a 4×4 Acura vehicle, leading to the deaths of two individuals and severe injuries to others.
The Accra Circuit Court granted bail to Bishop Amoako, his wife, and a sales assistant, Linda Bonsu Prempeh. The three were charged with “permitting an unlicensed person to drive” and have pleaded not guilty. Their bail was set at GH¢50,000 with two sureties each.
The police have assured the public that a thorough investigation will be conducted to determine the full circumstances surrounding the accident. The case continues to attract public interest as legal proceedings unfold.
