Tema police gives Obinim 24hours to report to police
Police in
Tema have given the founder and leader of the International Godsway Church,
Bishop Daniel Obinim 24 hours to honour their invitation or they’ll be forced
to take action against him.
Their
invitation follows public condemnation of a video of the Bishop whipping two of
his teenage members before his congregation for fornicating and abortion.
The
Gender Ministry has charged the Tema Domestic Violence and Victims Support Unit
(DOVVSU) to take over the matter. But Bishop Obinim is said to have failed to
honour their invitation.
In
a video which has gone viral on social media, the self-acclaimed Angel is
seen whipping a teenage girl and her boyfriend with a belt allegedly for
fornicating.
His
conduct has been condemned in no uncertain term with some human right lawyers
filing a suit against the controversial Bishop.
The
Minister for Gender, Children and Social Protection, Nana Oye Lithur then
reported the matter to the Tema Regional Police.
Based on
this, the police on Thursday August 18, 2016 sent an invitation to the
Community 9 branch of his church to report himself to the police.
But
Bishop Obinim has not honoured the invitation and the police, according to Adom
News’ Kwame Yankah might to forced to effect an arrest if he fails to appear on
Monday August 21,2016.
