Student accused of stealing Bishop Obinim’s GH¢1.5m granted bail

A 23-year-old student, Ohemaa Serwaa Abigail Owusu Ansah, has been granted bail by the Adenta Circuit Court after being accused of stealing GH¢1.5 million from Bishop Daniel Obinim, the founder of the International Godsway Church. The charges against her include conspiracy to commit a crime, specifically theft. She has yet to enter her plea and is set to reappear on October 29, 2026.

Prosecutors claim that Bishop Obinim, who was a friend of the accused, discovered that her safe had been broken into during a conversation at his residence on October 13, 2026. Upon noticing the theft, the complainant accused the student of contacting her father's worker, Owusu, who allegedly sent two young men to the house. These men, it is alleged, broke into the safe, stole the money, and left.

The student was arrested on October 16, 2026, at approximately 1400 hours and taken to the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) headquarters. During her caution statement, she allegedly admitted to inviting the two men to the complainant's house to break into the safe and steal the money. Investigations into the case are ongoing.
