Tension arising at Akrofoum near Anhwiaso in the Adansi Asokwa District of the Ashanti Region after a family used a pastor’s photo for their relative’s obituary.

The deceased is 37-year-old Kwankye Job while the pastor at the centre of the controversy is 40-year-old Emmanuel Dumavi of the Missionary Evangelical Ministry.

In a closed interview by Mr Job’s family head who made the mistake indicated that, it was the only picture they found in the bag of their deceased relative who had been away for over nine years.

According to him, mixed reactions greeted the poster after they brought it home as some relatives stated it was the deceased but others thought otherwise.

He told DKMNEWS.NET, the family is yet to decide on the next line of action as all preparations for the funeral have been set for Friday, January 20, 2023.

Expressing his view, Pastor Emmanuel Dumavi of the Missionary Evangelical Ministry hinted that, he cannot fathom the rationale behind the family’s action, especially when he is not in any way related to the deceased.

Also, Ankobeahene for Sikaman, Nana Yaw Atoakwa added that, is a taboo to do such thing so he do agree with the Pastor for calling off the funeral arrangements.
