The Chairman of the Church of Pentecost, Apostle Eric Nyamekye, has responded calmly and graciously following a tearful apology by Julius Debrah on behalf of the government over recent controversial remarks.
Addressing the situation, Apostle Nyamekye made it clear that he harbours no resentment, choosing instead the path of forgiveness and peace. His response has been widely described as mature and reflective of Christian values.
“I have forgiven her,” he stated, referring to the comments made by Mary Awusi. His words quickly resonated across the country, drawing admiration from many who see his reaction as a powerful example of humility and leadership.
He further added that the incident, rather than causing harm, has unexpectedly brought more visibility to the church and its mission. “She has only made our church and myself more popular,” he noted, turning a moment of tension into one of perspective and growth.
The response comes after a highly emotional apology by the Chief of Staff, who expressed deep regret over the remarks and acknowledged the importance of maintaining respect for religious institutions and leaders.
Observers say Apostle Nyamekye’s reaction has helped to calm tensions and redirect public discourse toward unity, forgiveness, and understanding. His words serve as a reminder of the power of grace in moments of controversy.
The development marks a significant step toward closure, with many hoping it will strengthen the relationship between government and faith-based organisations moving forward.
