DISTRICT SECURITY COUNCIL ANLO DECIDES ON MATTERS OF JERUSALEM CHURCH, WOE

The peaceful coexistence of the Chiefs and people of Woe, in the Anloga district of The Volta Region of Ghana, suffered various degrees of threats: psychologically, morally, spiritually, financially and otherwise when the news of sacrilegious activities of the church was broken by the Duamenefa Foundation of Fafaa 100.3 FM, Dzodze, with its follow up revelations bordering on the moral fibres of the society.

The Anlo District Security Council led by the District Chief Executive, Hon. Seth Yormewu has taken its final decision to stop the Elohim Jerusalem Church from its operations pending the determination of various degrees of allegations ranging from sexual molestation of members, allegations of using spiritual manipulations to the detriment of the vulnerable, among others.

It is on record that the Security Council during its first seating on this same issue instructed the prophet to stop operations in the interest of his personal security and that of others following the public reactions when the news broke out, but prophet Atsu Robert Nyatuame defied the instructions of the security council and the chiefs telling members of his church that he received counter instructions from the District Police Commander, DSP Agbanyo, to continue the church services despite the seriousness of the allegations levelled against him; an allegation the Commander denied.

Present at the District Security Meeting were the Awadada of Anlo, represented by Togbi Zewu, Togbi Gbodzor III the right-wing divisional Chief of Anlo, Togbi Samlafo III of Woe, the chairman of the Local Council of Churches, Rev. Dr. Raymond Sogah, Togbi, Adoblanui II of Woe, the three assembly men representing Woe, the Executive President, Duamenefa Foundation and Chief Executive Officer of Fafaa 100.3 Fm Dzodze, Emmanuel Ketaman Evortepe.

The following decisions were arrived at:

1. That allegations of assault between the prophet Atsu Nyatuame Robert his concubine Madam Patience Nyonyo and Madam Christine Afadzinu be referred to the police for further investigation and prosecution
   
2. Allegations of Assistant Pastor Mr. Prosper Ametordzie who chased a female neighbor for sex, and domestic violence ensued, is already being investigated by the police for possible prosecution in a court of competent jurisdiction
   
3. All other allegations of spiritual manipulations and orchestrations against members of the church and the public is referred to the Chiefs of Woe who should co-opt the chairman of the Local Council of Churches, Rev. Dr. Raymond Sogah and the Urban Council of Woe for arbitration and resolution 
   
4. A decision was taken by the Security Council to allow people who were directly affected in this matter to make official complaint to the police and chiefs
   
5. The Elohim Jerusalem Prayer Ministry should stop further activities henceforth, gathering of only 3 people permitted
