PASTOR'S BURIAL STOPPED

The body of the late Reverend Apostle John Kofi Boadi, 57, of the Dansoman Apostlic Church of Ghana, who died last month, could not be buried at the weekend at the church premises at Mpoase, Dansoman, as planned.

This followed threats of mayhem by residents of the area should the body be buried at the church premises because it could pose a health hazard to them.

The matter was reported to the Dansoman police by some residents and the police moved in to stop the burial.

Relatives of the late pastor who could not sit down for their late royal's body to be subject of a controversy, took it to his home town, Assin Nsuta, in the Central Region, for burial.
