A gospel musician, Ohemaa Mercy has condemned actions by unidentified groups calling itself land guards, who burnt down the entire structures of Believers House of Worship International church in Accra.
The church located at Okpoi Gonno on the Spintex Road in Accra has attracted lots of concerns from the general public including the musician, who described the situation as unGodly.
It was earlier reported in the media, that, some land guards invaded the premises of Believers House of Worship International and set the auditorium ablaze following a land dispute between the church and a private developer.
Over 500 chairs, musical instruments among other properties were destroyed running into billions of cedis.
It was also established that some unidentified personalities clad in the colors of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), were involved in the illicit act.
With her recent post on facebook, the multiple award winner, stated, “See how gun men entered my father Rev Abraham Lamptey’s Believers House of Worship Church and burnt everything down”.
According to her, lawlessness was gradually gaining root in the country, as culprits keep piling up causing harm to life and properties regardless of the law.
The alleged daughter, who cannot hide her displeasure with the situation at hand, lamented, “God of Vengeance they have attacked your house we leave it all to you”.
“Lawlessness is gradually gaining root in this country and the most serious part is that this generation can take their lawlessness and disrespect for laws to the church”, she stressed.
Responding to the situation at hand, the Head Pastor of the Church, Rev. Abraham Lamptey, indicated that, the Church was summoned to court over a suit challenging their ownership of the land about seven months ago.
He explained that the Church responded to the suit, kick starting a legal determination of the rightful owner of the land in court.
“To our surprise, as we were waiting on the court for further actions, these unidentified land guards came out of nowhere and burned properties belonging to the church to ashes’, he stressed.
In his recent video posted on youtube, Rev Lamptey, said, “My sister, let go, my brother stop crying thinking it is the devil that is doing it, and it is a necessary lost”.
