Apostle Dr Isaac Owusu-Bempah has stoked controversy after visiting Bishop Salifu Amoako's son in the hospital with other pastors.

The religious leaders visited Erald Amoako and his friend following a tragic motor collision in East Legon that left two people dead.

Apostle Owusu-Bempah and the pastors prayed for the 16-year-old, who has been blamed for speeding and causing a deadly crash.

According to a post shared by @sikaofficial1, the pastors went to the hospital on Sunday, October 13, 2024, to pray for the two boys.

“Owusu Bempah and a few other pastors visited the hospital last night, prayed for the two boys involved in the accident, and sought God’s intervention.”

The post added that considering the seriousness of his leg injury, Erald Amoako would have to be taken to the theatre for surgery.

"Last night, they had a meeting about taking him to the theatre this morning for surgery, but I’m not sure if he has already been taken to the theatre or not. He had a deep cut on his leg that needs surgery, so he’ll be taken to the theatre this morning for treatment."

Netizens criticise pastors who visited Erald

Although the pastors likely meant well, netizens who saw @sikaofficial1's post were unhappy with their hospital visit.

Some believe the pastors should have been praying for the relatives of those killed in the crash instead of the two teens.
