In a new update to this to the son of Bishop Amoako, Ghanaweb is reporting that the 16-year-old boy, son of the founder and general overseer of Alive Chapel International Church, has been handed a six-month sentence at a senior correctional center following a deadly accident that shocked East Legon.

The boy’s guilty plea to eight charges, including two counts of manslaughter, marked a turning point in the case.

The charges stemmed from a horrific road crash that claimed the lives of two young ladies.

According to police prosecutors, the teenager was driving a Jaguar F-Pace Sport—a luxury vehicle belonging to his parents—when the tragedy struck.

He reportedly showed off the car’s speed, leading a convoy of three vehicles. Witness accounts revealed that the journey began at A&C Mall, where he and a friend joined others in SUVs.

The Jaguar, driven by the accused, led the convoy through the streets of East Legon. In a split second, the joyride turned fatal when the car collided with a black Acura carrying the two young victims.

Initially held at the Osu Correctional Centre during his trial, the teenager maintained his innocence, pleading not guilty to all charges.

However, the weight of evidence eventually led him to admit his role in the accident, a decision that paved the way for his sentencing.
