She Claimed She Had Been Shot & Couldn’t Talk But Was Seen in Videos Dancing & Making signs” -Bongo

Outspoken commentator Bongo Ideas has raised serious questions about the events surrounding the burial of Apostle Kwadwo Safo Kantanka, drawing attention to what he described as troubling contradictions in the unfolding controversy.

In an official Facebook post, Bongo Ideas highlighted a situation involving a woman who reportedly claimed she had been shot and was unable to speak, but was later seen in videos dancing and making celebratory hand gestures during the funeral. He used the incident to question the credibility of some of the claims and events surrounding the burial.

Bongo Ideas also raised concerns about an alleged High Court injunction intended to prevent the funeral from going ahead. According to his post, despite the court order, the ceremony was reportedly allowed to proceed. He argued that judicial directives should not be treated casually and stressed that everyone, regardless of their position or influence, is expected to respect the authority of the courts.

Another issue he highlighted was the claim that Apostle Safo had expressed a preference not to have a public funeral. The eventual ceremony, however, reportedly became a highly publicised event attended by many people and characterised by significant public attention.

For Bongo Ideas, the situation raises broader concerns about whether the wishes of the deceased were respected and how disagreements among influential individuals can sometimes overshadow the dignity that should accompany a burial.

The incident involving the woman who was reportedly seen celebrating after earlier claiming she had been shot became one of the strongest points in his criticism. Bongo Ideas suggested that the apparent contradiction had further fuelled questions about the events surrounding the funeral and the credibility of those involved.

He further called for accountability, insisting that if any laws or court directives were violated, the individuals responsible should be held accountable regardless of their social or political standing.

The controversy surrounding Apostle Safo’s burial has therefore sparked a wider conversation about respect for the rule of law, the wishes of the deceased and the responsibilities of those organising high-profile funerals.

While different sides continue to offer their interpretations of the events, Bongo Ideas’ comments have added to the growing public debate over what transpired and whether the burial was handled in a manner befitting the legacy of one of Ghana’s most recognised innovators.
