One Of My Junior Pastors Was Arrested Because I Criticized The Government – Prophet Kofi Oduro

The founder and leader of Alabaster International Ministry, Prophet Kofi Oduro, has alleged that one of his pastors was arrested by the police during a prayer congregation in Achimota.

 

Prophet Kofi Oduro believes that his pastor was arrested just because of his criticism of the Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo government.

“You know, about the little truths we have been preaching about and during one small prayer congregation at Achimota Girls Guide Training college, that place is for government. The told us to leave there. We came to  a place close to the police station. It was full of action that day. One of our pastors was arrested and kept in custody for 8 hours. The reason is, we are doing church service (prayers). No microphone, no instruments. Only voice. We are talking” he said in Twi.
