Ayigya, a suburb of Kumasi in the Ashanti Region was thrown into chaos after residents woke up today, Wednesday 15 August to see a coffin with a corpse in it right in front of a popular drinking bar.

From what we have gathered, the coffin carrying the corps with the registration number, BA 751-15 from Accra brought the coffin there at the command of the Head Pastor of Spirit of Truth Ministry, Bishop Kingsley Harrison.

The deceased has been identified as 26-year-old Attaa Ativor whose named was changed to Doreen Harrison by the same pastor when he adopted her at the age of 8 when her father, Togbe Ativor died.

Speaking to Otec News reporter, Isaac Nsiah Foster a family member, Yaw Ativor revealed that 10 years after adopting the deceased, the pastor now brings her remains to Ayigya without informing them.

The family also claim the pastor did not inform them when Attaa fell sick and even when she died, it was a family member who informed the family, hence their decision to reject the remains and until he proves the cause of death.

Speaking to Otec, the pastor, Bishop Kingsley Harrison said:

“When Doreen died of asthma, I sent messages to the family at Ayigya about her death and the possible means sending the dead body but they refused. The body has been in the mortuary for 109, which comes with a high cost.”

“The family members gave me August 15 this year as a deadline to bring the dead body or I will face court action. I have no option than to bring it here this morning, which they have rejected,” the pastor narrated.

But Yaw Ativor identified as the family head rejected the pastor’s statement. He said:

“the pastor should have informed us when Ataa got sick and died. It was a family member who told us of her death. The pastor requested our presence in Accra for burial which we refused and that made us to him the ultimatum to send her here”.

“We will not accept the fact that she died of asthma, he must produce medical documents to the effect, because we find it strange why we were not told of her sickness and demise,” he angrily stated.
