Nana Kwadwo Safo Akofena I has been officially rejected by the family of the late Apostle Kwadwo Safo Kantanka as the head of the Kristo Asafo Mission.
The church’s announcement of his appointment the day before was clearly contradicted by a statement made public on Monday.
The family claims that although Apostle Kantanka had originally designated Safo Akofena as his successor in 2017, that mandate was revoked in 2024 as a result of what they described as serious mismanagement of businesses connected to the church, changes to core church doctrines, and persistent disobedience to the founder’s clear directives.
“These developments prompted Apostle Kwadwo Safo to revoke the mandate granted to his son in 2024 and to remove the provisions conferring that authority from the church’s governing framework,” the statement read.
According to the family, the late Apostle changed the succession plan to specifically remove Israel Safo from contention for leadership and appointed Sarah Adwoa Safo as Head of the Kwadwo Safo Family.
The family has acknowledged that they are ready to follow all required legal avenues and cautioned the public against doing business with Israel Safo under the guise of representing the Kwadwo Safo Family or the Kristo Asafo Mission.
