The Chiefs and
people of Nogokpo in the Ketu South Municipality of the Volta Region have
threatened to make Archbishop Charles Agyinasare, the founder and leader of the
Perez Chapel International, a scapegoat if he fails to show up at their palace.
The chiefs
issued a 14-day ultimatum to Archbishop Agyinasare during a press conference on
Friday, June 2, to appear before them to resolve a dispute arising from some
statements he recently made.
In an interview
with Selorm Adonoo on Eyewitness News, the convener of the community, Nufialaga
Mawufemor Korbla Nonyigbey, cautioned, “We have given him a 14-day ultimatum.
If he wants to do the needful, he should come. If he doesn’t want to, he should
refuse. If he is mature enough, he should do what is needful. If Agyinasare
doesn’t do the needful, we will make him a scapegoat.”
The convener of
the community said the justification by the founder and leader of the Perez
Chapel International will not be accepted.
“He has caused
serious damage to Voltarians and the people of Nogokpo. His justification
doesn’t prove anything to us,” Nufialaga Mawufemor Korbla Nonyigbey fumed.

slam Christian Council
He lambasted the
Christian Council for being quiet about the matter.
“He said things
damaging a whole community, and the Christian Council thinks it’s okay with
what he said. He should respect the African traditional belief system,” he
pointed out.
The convener of
the community clarified that the deity in Nogokpo does not scare people away.
“It is not a
matter of instilling fear in people. Everyone knows the power of the supreme
deity, the thunder deity in Nogokpo. Nogokpo is the god of justice,” he
clarified.
Archbishop
Agyinasare caused a stir during a Supernatural Summit held at the headquarters
of Perez Chapel in Accra on Thursday, May 25, 2023, when he preached about
divine protection and the existence of evil forces, casting insinuations
against Nogokpo, a deity named after a town in the Volta Region.
He claimed
Nogokpo is the demonic headquarters of the Volta Region; a claimed that
infuriated the chiefs and people in the town.
