Diana Asamoah causes arrest of assistant over GH₵4K MoMo theft

Ghanaian gospel musician Diana Asamoah has heaped praise on Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia for spearheading the government’s digitalisation drive which she says has saved her life and money.

In a video shared on social media, she disclosed that a pastor who was her assistant stole GH₵4,000 from her mobile wallet for which she caused his arrest.

“He is the one that translates my preaching into English, he is also my Bible reader. He speaks in tongues and he sometimes works in my absence. But this is not the first or second time, he usually goes on his knees to beg and I forgive him.

"… By the grace of the Holy Spirit and digital Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, now everything is simple because of the digitalisation. He confessed that he saw my secret code while I was conducting a transaction so he transferred GH₵4,000 which he was going to enjoy and spend some on women,” she stated.

A portion of the video shows the suspect identified as Reverend Kwame Asante in handcuffs at the Tesano Police Station.

“He knows my house, if I do not cause his arrest he might end up contacting assassins to kill me. Such a thief,” Diana Asamoah is heard stating in the background of the video.

Diana Asamoah who is a known member of the ruling New Patriotic Party has been an avid supporter of the presidential bid of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia who is the NPP’s flagbearer for the 2024 election.
