A 40-year-old gospel singer has suddenly become partially blind after a self-styled Prophet in Koforidua allegedly had sexual intercourse with her and used her vagina discharge for rituals.
The victim, Adwoa, described by her family as a powerful gospel singer who used to sing in churches to support the ministry of God, has almost lost her sight and has become depressed as a result of the sexual abuse in the house of God.
Speaking to mybrytfmonline.com, the victim narrated that, the suspect -Prophet Charles Kofi Adu -founder of Light Ministry Church located at Aya- Junction in Koforidua asked her to support his ministry as a lead singer.
She said, the Prophet later approached her with a marriage proposal and subsequently had sexual intercourse with her three separate times.
The victim weirdly narrated that “after every sexual intercourse, he claims I have a bad odour in my vagina so I should wash my vagina into a bucket at the bathroom I was confused why the Prophet kept telling me that I should wash my vagina into the bucket but he told me there was no cause for alarm just that he wanted me to smell fresh. Later, he sent me to his spiritual father at Old Estate a suburb of Koforidua, and the spiritual father after some incantation said, marriage between us wouldn’t work so I should walk away from the relationship “.
Adwoa continued while tearing up that, “a few days later, I fell ill and started experiencing painful bulging eyes and went partially blind subsequently”
She said her mother took her to the Eastern Regional Hospital but was referred to Korle Bu Teaching Hospital however has not been able to go to Korle Bu for medical due to financial difficulties.
Adwoa’s chronic depression seems to be affecting her mental stability as she feels rejected by society.
Reacting to the allegations, Prophet Charles Kofi Adu acknowledged knowing the victim as one of his Church Members who used to attend church with her mother from Suhum.
According to him, even though the victim used to perform house chores for him and sometimes sleepover, he has never had sexual intercourse with her.
Prophet Kofi Adu who also works with the Eastern Regional Office of the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ) told Mybrytfmonline.com that, he accepted the victim to his house on condition that she needed help which he tried to provide her some basic needs.
The Prophet admitted sending the victim to see her spiritual father at Old Estate but says was a mere visit without any spiritual exercise.
