Togbe Afede’s Ex-gratia: You overstepped – Dr. Lawrence Tetteh to Adom-Otchere

Founder and President of World Miracle Outreach. Rev Dr. Lawrence Tetteh has condemned Paul Adom-Otchere’s criticism of Togbe Afede over his decision to return some GH₵365,000 paid him as ex-gratia for his role as a Member of the Council of State from 2017 to 2020.

Reverend Lawrence Tetteh in a panel discussion on the GTV Breakfast Show expressed concerned over the politicization of what he deems to be a patriotic and commendable gesture by the Agbogbomefia of the Asogli State.

He praised Togbe Afede for the gesture and appealed to political and religious leaders to take a cue from his actions.

He urged the media to be circumspect with their opinion on issues that concern chiefs and the clergy as it could escalate into something unpleasant.

“I will urge the media to be very circumspect with how they handle chieftaincy matters and religious matters. I think Paul Adom-Otchere overstepped a little. Let’s be mindful that Togbe Afede is a traditional leader and has a lot of following.
