According to Asamoah, her assistant pastor admitted to spying on her during a transaction and discovering her mobile money PIN, which enabled him to transfer the money.
“He is the one who translates my preaching into English, reads the Bible, and sometimes handles tasks in my absence. However, this is not the first or second time; he has begged for forgiveness before,” she explained.

“Thanks to the grace of the Holy Spirit and the digitalization efforts led by Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, everything is more secure now. He confessed to seeing my secret code during a transaction and transferred GH₵4,000 for his personal use, including spending on women,” she added.
Asamoah expressed concerns for her safety, stating, “He knows where I live, and if I don’t take action, he might resort to extreme measures. He is a thief.”
As an avid supporter of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and Vice-President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia’s presidential bid for the 2024 election, Asamoah commended Bawumia’s digitization agenda for aiding in the arrest of the suspect.
