Prophet Nigel Gaisie, the Founder of Prophetic Hill Chapel, has ordered the Ghana Police Service to arrest a Muslim cleric captured in a viral video slapping Apostle Daniel Junior Yaw Adjei at the Police headquarters.
According to Nigel Gaisie, the Muslim cleric has no right to slap the pastor in the presence of established national institutions such as the Ghana Police Service.
He argued that the slap was very harsh and wicked.
Nigel Gaisie further called on the Christian Council of Ghana, Ministry of Local Government and Religious Affairs, Presidential Envoy of Religious Affairs, Hon. Elvis A. Ankrah, Ghana Pentecostal and Charismatic Council, the Prophetic Council, and Catholic Bishops’ Conference to be interested in the issue.
In a social media post on August 13, 2026, Nigel Gaisie stated, “Christian Council of Ghana, Ministry of Local Government and Religious Affairs, Presidential Envoy of Religious Affairs, Hon. Elvis A. Ankrah, Ghana Pentecostal and Charismatic Council, the Prophetic Council, Catholic Bishops’ Conference, and all the relevant Christian bodies, as well as the Ghana Police Service.
“Please, what right does the infamous man behind the pastor have, in the presence of established national institutions such as the Ghana Police Service, to slap the pastor in the very harsh and wicked way he did? The Church of God is not weak. We are for peace, but nobody should take us for granted.
“The modern-day pastors are not cowards and ignorant. Ghana Police Service, arrest the medieval-minded man who slapped the pastor before Sunday. Enough of the excesses,” part of his post said.
“N.B. I would like to be connected to the pastor in handcuffs.
He added, “N.B. I’m not supporting any excesses of religion. Nope. But nobody should take the law, in the name of religion, and abuse others. No way! Such a coward. Let’s live in peace. We are one people.”
The development follows the Ghana Police Service’s arrest of an Imam and a Pastor over separate videos containing comments considered offensive and inciting violence.
One of the suspects, a 35-year-old Imam, was arrested over comments he made during a sermon at a mosque in Ntensere in the Ashanti Region.
The second suspect was arrested over a video in which he made derogatory comments about Prophet Mohammed.
In a statement issued by the Police Service read, “The Ghana Police Service, in collaboration with the National Signals Bureau (NSB), has arrested suspect Masud Abdullah, aged 35, in connection with a video in which he made statements advocating violence against persons who speak ill of Prophet Mohammed.
According to information available to the Police, the suspect, an Imam, allegedly made the statements while delivering a sermon at a mosque at Ntensere in the Atwima Nwabiagya North District of the Ashanti Region.
In a related development, the Cyber Vetting and Enforcement Team has arrested suspect Daniel Junior Yaw Adjei alias Apostle Daniel JY Adjei, who was seen in a video making derogatory and offensive comments about Prophet Mohammed.
Investigations are ongoing, and both suspects will be taken through the due process of the law.
The Ghana Police Service takes this opportunity to remind the public, particularly religious leaders, preachers, community leaders, social media commentators that freedom of religion and freedom of expression must never be used as justification for inciting violence …
… or encouraging members of the public to harm others. Such inciteful utterances constitute infractions and perpetrators will be arrested to face the full rigours of the law”.
The arrest follows public condemnation of the remarks, including from Sheikh Aremeyaw Shaibu, spokesperson for the National Chief Imam, who called for the Imam to be arrested over the alleged statements.
Following the arrest, a cleric was captured slapping the pastor from behind while cautioning him over his alleged remarks against Islam.
