Accra: Founder of Prophetic Hill Chapel, Prophet Nigel Gaisie, has urged the Ghana Police Service to apprehend a Muslim cleric seen in a viral video allegedly slapping Apostle Daniel Junior Yaw Adjei at the police headquarters. Prophet Gaisie emphasized that although he does not support violence, it is crucial that no one takes the law into their own hands or abuses others under the pretense of religion.
According to Ghana Web, Prophet Gaisie made a social media post on August 13, 2026, calling for the cleric's arrest before Sunday. He appealed to various religious and governmental bodies, including the Christian Council of Ghana, the Ministry of Local Government and Religious Affairs, the Presidential Envoy for Religious Affairs Elvis A. Ankrah, the Ghana Pentecostal and Charismatic Council, the Prophetic Council, and the Catholic Bishops' Conference, to show interest in the matter.
Prophet Gaisie questioned the authority of the cleric in the social media post, stating, "Please, what right does the infamous man behind the pastor have, in the presence of established national institutions such as the Ghana Police Service, to slap the pastor in the very harsh and wicked way he did? The Church of God is not weak. We are for peace, but nobody should take us for granted."
He further declared that modern-day pastors are neither cowards nor ignorant, urging the Ghana Police Service to arrest the cleric before Sunday. He added, "Enough of the excesses," reinforcing his stance against religious abuse.
The viral video, which shows the Muslim cleric slapping the pastor who was in handcuffs, has sparked significant public outrage. The cleric allegedly confronted the pastor over derogatory remarks he made against Islam.
Meanwhile, the Ghana Police Service, in collaboration with the National Signals Bureau (NSB), has arrested Apostle Daniel Junior Yaw Adjei for the alleged derogatory comments about Prophet Mohammed, as seen in the video. The arrest was executed by the Police Cyber Vetting and Enforcement Team (CVET), and investigations are currently ongoing to ensure the suspect faces due legal process.
