The son of the late Apostle Kwadwo Safo Kantanka, Nana Kwadwo Safo Akofena I, following his installation as the new head of the Kristo Asafo Mission of Ghana, has called for unity and vigilance.
Nana Kwadwo Safo Akofena, in his inaugural speech as the newly sworn-in leader of the Kristo Asafo Mission of Ghana, called on all members to unite as one, especially during difficult times.
He urged them to rise above every challenge and remain committed to carrying forward the remarkable legacy and good works of the late Apostle Kwadwo Safo Kantanka.
In a video shared on X, Nana Kwadwo Safo Akofena stated, “If you are taking a shower and a madman picks up your cover cloth, you don’t have to run after him; else you will be seen as the mad one.
I will plead for unity, togetherness and love. That is what was used to nurture the church. Let’s remain together, but let’s be vigilant. It is time for courage. I will support you, support me and pray for me as well”.
Meanwhile, Ghanaian fashion icon Osebo the Zaraman has criticised Nana Kwadwo Safo Akofena following an alleged shooting incident involving former Member of Parliament for Dome-Kwabenya, Sarah Adwoa Safo.
According to Osebo the Zaraman, Kwadwo Akofena can be described as the devil on earth who troubled his father until his death and now wants to now seeking to harm his elder sister.
He further alleged that Akofena has surrounded himself with corrupt elders while sidelining loyal members who dedicated over 40 years of service to the church, adding that if he truly loved his father, he would have respected and supported the people his father cherished
Osebo further accused Akofena of portraying himself on social media as a righteous and virtuous person, while insisting that his true character is different.
In a TikTok video shared on June 21, 2026, Osebo alleged, saying, “You come to social media and deceive people into thinking you’re as pure as God or an angel. But if there is anyone who can be described as the devil on earth, it is Kwadwo Akofena. Kwadwo, what exactly do you want in this world? You troubled your father until his death, and now you want to kill your own elder sister too?” Osebo said.
Osebo the Zaraman further asserted that Ghanaians would eventually come to know Akofena’s true character, adding that he would regret his actions when that time comes.
His comments follow, Nana Kwadwo Safo Akofena I, a son of the late founder of the Kristo Asafo Mission, Apostle Emeritus Kwadwo Safo Kantanka, has been installed as the new leader of the church.
According to reports, the ceremony took place on Sunday, June 21, 2026, and was attended by church members, elders, and supporters.
His installation comes on the heels of an Accra High Court injunction on plans to install Israel Kwadwo Safo, popularly known as Nana Kwadwo Safo Akofena, as successor to the late Apostle Emeritus Dr Ing. Kwadwo Safo.
Court documents suggest two senior members of the Kristo Asafo Mission have dragged the church and some of its key leaders to the High Court in a bid to stop the installation of Apostle Kwadwo Safo’s son, Israel Kwadwo Safo (Nana Kwadwo Safo Akofena), as the next leader of the movement.
According to Court documents, Kweku Agyenim Boateng, a former Deputy General Secretary of Kristo Asafo Mission, and Seth Appiah Richard Brown have filed a writ challenging the legitimacy of the succession process following the death of the church’s founder, Apostle Emeritus Dr Ing. Kwadwo Safo, in September 2025.
