Sarah Adwoa Safo has publicly thrown her support behind her brother, Israel Kwadwo Safo, popularly known as Akofena, accepting him as the leader of the Kantanka family and the Kristo Asafo Church.<\/p>\n
In a statement issued on Thursday, October 8, 2026, the former Dome-Kwabenya MP said the decision was intended to promote family unity, reconciliation and the preservation of their late father Apostle Dr Kwadwo Safo\u2019s legacy.<\/p>\n
<\/ins><\/div>\n
\u201cI have chosen the path of conciliation, founded upon love, mutual respect and the enduring undisputed bonds of family. I have immense love and respect for my brother, Israel Kwadwo Safo, and in the spirit of honouring our father\u2019s wishes, I publicly acknowledge and accept him as the Leader of the Kantanka Family and the Kristo Asafo Church,\u201d Adwoa Safo stated.<\/p>\n
She affirmed her readiness to work with Akofena and her other siblings to advance their father\u2019s vision, urging the family to put aside the differences that emerged following his death.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe time has come for us, as a family, to transcend whatever differences, misunderstandings or grievances that may have characterised the immediate aftermath of the demise of our dear dad and consign them to history,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
The latest development follows months of disagreement over the leadership of the Kristo Asafo Mission after the death of Apostle Kwadwo Safo in September 2025.<\/p>\n
In June, the late Apostle\u2019s family rejected Akofena\u2019s claim to the leadership of the Kristo Asafo Mission, insisting that the succession framework established by the founder remained binding.<\/p>\n
The family at the time also recognised Adwoa Safo as the duly recognised Head of the Kwadwo Safo Family and principal representative of the family\u2019s interests.<\/p>\n
Adwoa Safo has now called on members of the Kristo Asafo Church and the wider Kantanka family to respect the renewed commitment to unity.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur father\u2019s legacy transcends any one individual. It is a collective inheritance and a profound responsibility entrusted to us, as his children,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
