Way Church, Bishop Daniel Obinim has been
handcuffed and sent out of the Tema Regional

to him by the Tema Domestic Violence and Victims
Support Unit (DOVVSU).

and several junior pastors, among the Junior
Pastors was one person described as his
accomplice.

a complaint of assault filed by the Minister of
Gender and Social Protection to the Tema DOVVSU
after video of Bishop Obinim whipping teenage
members of his church for fornicating went viral.
Police in Tema gave the ‘Angel of God’ 24
hour ultimatum to honour their invitation or they
will be forced to take action against him.
An aide to the Bishop responded that the man of
God respected the laws of the land and hence would
respond to their invitation at the appropriate
time.

Police Headquarters that the man of God honoured
the invitation on Tuesday afternoon.
However, in a video that has gone viral on social
media and published by Adomonline.com below, the
man of God is seen handcuffed and being ushered
out of the DOVVSU headquarters in Tema by several
policemen.
He is then escorted into an awaiting Toyota Pick
Up with registration number, WR 1585-12.
“Jesus Christ is the winner…,” Obinim says
as he walks out of the Police yard. His church
members that accompanied him respond ‘Amen and
Amen’.

told the media that Obinim is being sent to the
Police CID headquarters in Accra.

Obinim’s docket so as I speak, Obinim is being
