The Speaker of Parliament, Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin, has encouraged family members of the late Kwadwo Safo Kantanka, to remain united and not fight over his properties.
He has advised that they stay together as one family to give the late industrialist and man of God a befitting burial, instead of engaging in acts that may tarnish the reputation of the revered family.
Speaker Bagbin made the call when the family, led by the former Member of Parliament for Dome/Kwabenya, Sarah Adwoa Safo, paid a courtesy call on him to officially communicate the passing of the late Apostle Kantanka to him.
The founder of the Kristo Asafo Mission and Kantanka Automobiles died on September 11, 2025. His death was announced via a statement released by his daughter, the former Dome-Kwabenya Member of Parliament, Sarah Adwoa Safo.
Following the announcement, social media speculation arose over who would take over his empire between the politician and her stepbrother, Kwadwo Safo Jnr.
Amid the speculation, a statement from the family announced that no individual or group should deal with Kwadwo Safo Jnr as a representative of the family.
“The family of the late Apostle Dr Kwadwo Safo wishes to inform the general public that no individual, including Mr. Kwadwo Safo Jnr, has been authorised to act on behalf of the family in any transactions related to the businesses of the late Apostle or in connection with the organisation of his funeral. The public is advised to desist from dealing with him on such matters,” the statement read in part.
Meanwhile, the Speaker has added his voice advising that disunity will not auger well for the legacy his father bequeathed.
