According to a security expert, the recent statement made by Archbishop Charles Agyinasare, the founder and leader of Perez Chapel, referring to Nogokpo as “demonic headquarters,” could lead to instability in the nation’s security and tranquility.
Godson, Mr. The man of God’s remarks, according to Bill Ocloo, the executive director of the Africa Centre for Emergency Management and Human Security, were regrettable and required an unconditional apology to Nogokpo citizens and the people of Volta as a whole.
In an interview with the Ghana News Agency on the current occurrence, Mr. Ocloo voiced concern and stated the careless remarks could have a negative social and economic impact on the Volta and Nogokpo community members, ultimately leading to stigmatization.
In his view, the renowned Minister of the Gospel had broken article 21(1)C of the 1992 constitution and should thus apologize to the good people of Nogokpo through the same channel.
Mr. Ocloo went on to say that the community was a serene place where all believers could live.
He continued by saying that if Archbishop Agyin-Asare had indeed claimed that his wife is from Volta, then he must be in charge of deciding how to handle such matters.
He further revealed that due to the serene atmosphere of the village, many pastors, politicians, and other people come here for rituals.
Mr. Ocloo should call Archbishop Agyinasare to apologize to them on behalf of the National Peace Council, Christian Council, and Charismatic Council.
He urged the people of Nogokpo to maintain their composure as they worked to put the proper measures in place.
