● He dumped the Bible and sought help elsewhere
Church elder who could no longer contain the infidelity of his wife put the Bible aside and sought redress from a river deity instead.
He believed waiting for God to address his issue might delay hence the decision of Mr Moses Grushi also known as Father Moses, to drag his wife before Koteafere, a river deity at Agyirnia near Bibiani in the Western North Region for speedy resolution.
Lo and behold his plan worked like magic as his wife readily confessed having affair with a Deacon in her husband’s church (name withheld).
The culprit was identified as Deacon Emma.
Mr Grushi had for sometime been suspecting his wife of “Conjugal infidelity” but lacked scintilla of evidence to prove his case.
But his decision to consult the river goddess solved this puzzle timeously to his satisfaction.
Speaking to a local radio station here in the presence of The Spectator, Father Moses said he had three children with the wife with the third child being six months old.
He said that the deacon mostly held church service in the evening at about 9:00pm and would invite the wife.
“Anytime he invited my wife, he would ask her if I were around, something that made me suspicious”, he indicated.
According to Father Moses, he was compelled to contact Nana Kwaku Amoah, Chief of Sefwi Brahabebome, who led him to the river goddess.
At the shrine, he stated that he promised the deity a fowl and a sheep if the secret would be revealed.
He said two days after the consultation, the wife’s demeanour changed and she confessed she had been having affair with the deacon.
“If I had told people that the deacon was having an affair with my wife, it would have been difficult to believe, hence I took the decision to consult the deit.
“I did not mean to disgrace him (Deacon), I only wanted the truth of the matter to come out”, he stressed.
Father Moses further said that after the confession, he went back to Nana Kwaku Amoah to fulfill his pledge to the deity.
Nana Kwaku Duah also confirmed the incident saying “Father Moses honoured his promise and he led him again to the shrine to offer the fowl and sheep”.

Christians have been urged to demonstrate a living faith in Jesus Christ by allowing their confession of Him as Lord and Saviour to reflect in their daily lives.
According to the Kaneshie District Pastor of the Evangelical Presbyterian Church, Ghana (EPCG), Rev. Dzidzor Nathaniel Affram, a genuine Christian’s confession should go beyond words and be demonstrated through obedience to God, love for others and service to the Church.
He made the call at the 40th anniversary remembrance service for the late Wesley Kwasi Kwadzo at the Evangelical Presbyterian Church, Ghana, Maranatha Congregation at Awudome Avenui in the Volta Region.
Speaking on the theme, “The Church Built on a Living Confession,” Rev. Affram said life would continually present challenges capable of testing Christians’ faith, making it necessary for believers to hold firmly to their confession that Jesus Christ is Lord.
He explained that accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour required Christians to live according to His teachings, stressing that their faith must be evident in their conduct.
“A living confession listens to God and not man,” he said, urging Christians to remain obedient to God even when faced with difficulties and pressures.
Rev. Affram further encouraged the congregation to care for vulnerable people and demonstrate concern for others, adding that such acts were practical expressions of Christian faith.
He also urged Christians to identify and use their God-given gifts to build the Church.
He said every member of the Church had a role to play and cautioned Christians against looking down on others because of their status or abilities.
The remembrance service brought together family members, friends, members of the congregation and sympathisers to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the late Wesley Kwasi Kwadzo.
