A bombshell announcement made on Monday morning is expected to send shockwaves across Ghana. The family of the late Apostle Dr. Kwadwo Safo Kantanka — the legendary inventor, industrialist, and spiritual leader — has officially disowned his son, Kwadwo Safo Jnr.
The explosive statement has warned the public, business partners, and church members to steer clear of the once-powerful son, hitherto considered as heir to the Kanatanka dynasty, declaring that he no longer represents the family or the Kantanka empire in any capacity.
“Mr. Israel Kwadwo Safo, also known as Nana Kwadwo Akofena — former CEO of the Kantanka Group of Companies — has not been authorized to represent the family or act on its behalf in any capacity,” the family declared.
The statement, signed by the official family spokesperson, Dr. Emmanuel Yaw Boakye, leaves no room for doubt: anyone who deals with Kwadwo Safo Jnr does so at their own risk.
The caution comes just weeks after the passing of the iconic Apostle Safo, who was celebrated as the “Star of Africa” for his groundbreaking inventions and the founding of Kristo Asafo Mission and the Kantanka Group of Companies.
But behind the mourning appears to be a brewing family feud — one that could tear apart the very legacy Apostle Safo built over decades.

According to the family, all funeral arrangements, business transactions, and property matters relating to the late Apostle will be handled solely through official family channels and committees — not through his son.
The strong-worded disclaimer has already sparked massive public speculation about a deep power struggle within the Kantanka dynasty. Sources close to the family hint that tensions have been rising since Apostle Safo’s passing, with disputes allegedly erupting over control of the empire’s multi-million cedi assets.
For many followers of the Kristo Asafo Mission and fans of Kantanka’s innovations, one question now dominates the conversation: What really happened between Kwadwo Safo Jnr and the rest of the family?
