Bishop Obinim Failed to Appear before the court – Lawyer says he is seriously sick

Obinim
The founder of International God’s Way Church (IGWC), Bishop Obinim was to appear for trials at the court on Monday, Nov. 16, but he failed to show up with a solid excuse.

The controversial preacher together with two others has been charged with the publication of false news and forgery of documents contrary to sections 208 and 159 of the Criminal and other offenses Act, (1960) (ACT 29) respectively.

At the Kaneshie District Court yesterday, his lawyer, Louis Yiadom Kwakye reportedly told the court that the Bishop’s health condition has moved from bad to worse, and with that, he couldn’t show up for the trial.

According to the lawyer, Bishop Obinim was ready to travel from Kumasi to Accra for the hearing but “took a turn for the worse” and was seeking medical attention.

“My Lord, we profusely apologized for the absence of A1 (Bishop). He was due to travel from Kumasi this dawn but his health took from bad to worse. We advised him to seek urgent medical attention” he told the court.

However, the judge accepted the explanation from the lawyer of Obinim as the case was subsequently adjourned to December 17, 2020.

Angel Obinim per the report has pleaded not guilty to the charges levelled against him.
