The Cyber Vetting and Enforcement Team (CVET) of the Ghana Police Service has arrested the General Overseer of Elohim International Ministry, Prophet William Gyimah, for allegedly issuing death threats against the Vice President, Professor Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang, in a viral video.
The suspect, aged 49, was arrested on Tuesday at Kasoa in the Central Region during a targeted operation by the CVET.
The arrest followed intelligence gathered through proactive monitoring of social media platforms, where a widely circulated video on TikTok and other channels captured the suspect allegedly making threatening remarks against the Vice President.
According to the police, the video was classified as high priority due to its potential implications for public safety and national security.
Prophet Gyimah has since been handed over to the Special Investigations Unit of the Criminal Investigations Department to assist with ongoing investigations.
The Police Administration cautioned the public against using both traditional and digital media platforms to incite violence or disseminate content that could undermine peace and security.
It warned that persons found culpable of such acts would be dealt with in accordance with the law.
The police assured the public that updates would be provided as investigations continue.
