Nana Pomaa Nhyira, an aunt of former Dome-Kwabenya MP Sarah Adwoa Safo, has shared details of the shooting incident involving her niece, claiming she experienced a spiritual encounter during the attack.
Speaking at a press conference at the 37 Military Hospital on June 23, 2026, Nana Pomaa Nhyira said Adwoa Safo told her that she saw a bright light and the image of her late father, Apostle Kwadwo Safo, protecting her as shots were fired.
According to her aunt, Adwoa Safo said the bright light covered her face whenever bullets were approaching, and she saw her late father standing in front of her and taking the bullets.
“Adwoa said that as the bullets were approaching, a bright light suddenly covered her face, and she saw Daddy (Apostle Kwadwo Safo) standing before her, taking the bullets. If he was able to shield her from the bullets and prevent them from harming her, then he should also support the doctors in healing her and ensure that she receives justice,” Nana Pomaa Nhyira said.
The shooting incident occurred on June 21, 2026, at a property linked to Israel Kwadwo Safo Akofena in Kwabenya.
The incident is believed to be connected to an ongoing leadership and succession dispute within the Kristo Asafo Mission following the death of Apostle Kwadwo Safo.
Earlier statements from the Safo family alleged that Adwoa Safo had gone to serve court documents relating to an injunction intended to stop a planned installation ceremony for her brother as head of the church.
The family also claimed that gunfire erupted during the confrontation, leading to injuries and damage to property.
Meanwhile, investigations into the incident are ongoing.
