The Bible says there\u2019s pride before a fall, and everything about that statement he made showed that he is very proud. So, I was very happy when Dampare and his team acted. Salifu can\u2019t just say anything he likes without consequences,&#8221; she added.<\/p>\n<p>According to Sally, \u201cEven if it\u2019s one night that you spent in the cell, it\u2019s still on record. So, humble yourself.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Elrad Amoako appeared before the Juvenile Court on November 1, where the court ordered his remand and scheduled a reappearance for November 7.<\/p>\n<p>The victims, Justine Agbenu and Maame Dwomoh have since been laid to rest.<\/p>\n<p>ID\/OGB<\/p>\n<p> Click here to follow the GhanaWeb Entertainment News WhatsApp channel <\/p>\n<p><b>Watch the latest episode of Talkertainment below:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><div class=\"youtube-embed\" data-video_id=\"MO7Wsb9fS6s\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"It was all fun and excitement at Piesie Esther&#039;s Made by Grace Concert | Talkertainment\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/MO7Wsb9fS6s?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sally Mann and Salifu Amoako Ghanaian TV presenter and entertainment pundit Sally Mann has expressed satisfaction with the recent actions of the Ghana Police Service against Bishop Salifu Amoako in connection with the fatal accident involving his son at East Legon on October 12, 2024.
