Spokesperson for Sarah Adwoa Safo, has denied claims that, the body of late Apostle Kwadwo Safo Kantanka, was never kept at Transitions Funeral Home.
Although he failed to disclose where the body of the late Kristi Asafo church founder was kept, he insisted that, the body was held at a different place
His comments come on the back of videos and reports which circulated on social media claiming police had intercepted a hearse carrying the Apostle’s body as it was leaving Transitions Funeral Home.
However speaking on Neat FM the day after the burial, Friday July, 31 Safo’s spokesperson, Seth Kofi Kissi, indicated that he was personally assigned by the former MP to collect the body from where it was actually being held before it was taken to the funeral grounds.
“Apostle Kwadwo Safo Kantanka’s body was never at Transitions. I was honoured when Adwoa Safo personally entrusted me with the responsibility of bringing the body from where it had been kept,” Kissi said.
He revealed that Adwoa Safo arranged for a brand-new, previously unused vehicle to transport her father’s remains, and had the casket packaged and disguised to look like building materials.
Also in a separate interview on Okay FM, Kissi went further, revealing just how convincing the disguise was.
“Those who took the casket out of the car didn’t even know it was a casket they were carrying. The package looked like building materials. It was a complete, polished pallet in disguise with the casket well-parcelled inside,” he said.
“It was when the burial rites were about to begin that those around realised it was the body that had been carried out of the car,” he added.
Meanwhile, many believe Sarah Adwoa Safo’s team appears to have outwitted both police and rival family members to ensure her father, the late Apostle Kwadwo Safo Kantanka, was buried as planned, despite a court injunction and confusion over which vehicle actually carried his body.
The former Dome-Kwabenya MP has been locked in a bitter dispute with her brother, Nana Kwadwo Safo Akofena I, over control of their father’s funeral. The Accra High Court granted a 10-day interim injunction on July 29, 2026, restraining Adwoa Safo from proceeding with the burial while a substantive case over the arrangements remained before the court.
Despite the order, thousands of mourners gathered at Gomoa Mpota in the Central Region on July 30 for the funeral.
