Church urges calm amid protests over new pastor appointment

The Assemblies of God Church Ghana has called for calm among members at its Bohyen Branch in the Ashanti Region after protests erupted over the appointment of a new pastor.

Members expressed discontent, preferring a different candidate than the one chosen by church leadership.

The situation escalated during the induction ceremony, with security personnel present due to tensions.

Church leadership emphasized adherence to constitutional procedures for leadership appointments, denying allegations of imposition.

Spokesperson Roland Affail Monney urged members to prioritize peace and unity, affirming the church's commitment to resolving the issue peacefully and maintaining its mission of spreading Christ's message.
