Osebo Cautions Mourners Over Bottled Water at Apostle Kwadwo Safo Kantanka’s Funeral

Osebo Cautions Mourners Over Bottled Water: Ghanaian fashion entrepreneur and prominent Kristo Asafo Mission member, Osebo the Zaraman, has advised mourners attending the final funeral rites of the late Apostle Kwadwo Safo Kantanka to exercise caution before drinking bottled water served at the event.

Speaking at the funeral grounds in Gomoa Mpota in the Central Region, Osebo demonstrated what he described as a simple method for determining whether bottled water is safe to drink.

According to him, mourners should first squeeze the bottle before opening it.

He explained that if the bottle compresses easily, it should be discarded. However, if it remains firm and does not collapse, people should still clean the mouth of the bottle with a clean handkerchief before drinking.

“If you’re given bottled water to drink, squeeze the bottle first. If it compresses easily, throw it away. If it doesn’t, clean the mouth of the bottle before drinking it because some people are cobras,” Osebo said.

His remarks drew attention from mourners gathered at the funeral as thousands continue to pay their last respects to the renowned inventor, industrialist and founder of the Kristo Asafo Mission.

Funeral Continues Despite Court Injunction

The final funeral rites of Apostle Kwadwo Safo Kantanka are currently underway at Gomoa Mpota despite a 10-day interim injunction issued by the Accra High Court.

The court order, granted on July 29, 2026, temporarily restrains former Dome-Kwabenya Member of Parliament Sarah Adwoa Safo from proceeding with the funeral arrangements until a legal dispute before the court is resolved.

The injunction followed objections raised by Nana Kwadwo Safo Akofena I, who described the announced burial date as “null and void” due to unresolved disagreements surrounding the funeral arrangements. He indicated that a new burial date would be announced after the legal issues are settled.

Despite the court order, preparations at the funeral venue have continued, with friends, relatives, members of the Kristo Asafo Mission and sympathisers arriving in large numbers, many travelling in chartered buses to honour the late spiritual leader.
