An old video of popular Ghanaian pastor, Salifu Amoako, has resurfaced following a tragic incident involving his son, who was reportedly speeding and crashed into a group of Tender Sprout students, resulting in their deaths.
In the resurfaced video, Pastor Salifu Amoako boldly boasted to his congregation about his disregard for the law, particularly when it came to driving. “In my country, when the police see me, they salute and call me General. Without a driver’s license and a car number plate, I have been driving,” he said confidently in the video.
The pastor further emphasized his untouchable status, saying, “Who born you by mistake to stop me? Because if you stop me, I will call your boss.” His comments, made in a tone of superiority, have now sparked widespread outrage, especially in light of the tragic incident involving his son.
The resurfacing of this video has added fuel to the growing criticism of Pastor Salifu Amoako and his perceived sense of entitlement, as many are questioning the possible influence of this attitude on his son’s reckless behavior that led to the unfortunate accident. The connection between the pastor’s boastful remarks and the tragic consequences has reignited discussions about accountability and privilege within the clergy.
This Salifu guy has often placed himself above the law. Now, his son is responsible for the east legon deaths yesterday. Such as lawless family! pic.twitter.com/FjCpIqaEuO
