Information surfacing currently is that the Anglican priest who was captured kissing students has been sacked from the St Monica’s College of Education in Asante Mampong.
The new development comes after an emergency meeting between school authorities and the Anglican Church in Asante Mampong after the video went viral.
The Anglican Church of Ghana had earlier condemned the act and promised an internal investigation on the priest.
A statement which was signed by the church on August 17 indicated that “the said Priest will be dealt with in accordance with the norms and values of the Anglican Communion where morality is extremely revered in the Church.”
“The church is saddened by the news and wish to state expressly that, thorough investigation has immediately been instituted into the matter and the action of the said priest will be dealt with in accordance with the norms and values of the Anglican Communion where morality is extremely revered in the church,” the statement undersigned by Venerable Dr. George Dawson-Ahmoah, Executive Director to the Metropolitan Archbishop of Ghana added.
WHY IS THE PRIEST TRENDING?
An Anglican priest identified as Balthazar Obeng Larbi was seen kissing female students from the St Monica’s College of Education in Asante Mampong.
One of the girls was uncomfortable and tried to resist but the school Chaplain literally forced the kiss on her while the whole school watched.
