The Police Command in Ashanti Region has clashed with church members of Open Arms Ministries over President’s directive banning all public gatherings including church services.

The church was holding its service today against the directive of the President which was to prevent the spread of Covid-19.

According to reports, the head pastor Apostle Kofi Nkrumah was arrested after church members earlier resisted the arrest.

Members were said to be in their hundreds during the church service at North Suntreso in Kumasi.
