Apostle Nyamekye explained that the decision to build prisons for Ghana was motivated by the 2021 theme of the church, “Possession the Nations”.
Meanwhile, the Ejura Prison camp was jointly commissioned by the Pentecost Chairman, the Interior Minister, Ambrose Dery, and the Chief of Ejura, Barima Osei Hwedie II.
The camp comprises an administration block, a chapel which will also serve as classrooms, football pitch, baptistry, modern washrooms, mechanized borehole, offices, infirmary, workshops, and other auxiliary facilities.

According to him, the church has already undertaken the construction of police stations, provision of mechanized boreholes in rural communities, community clinics, and others.
He also mentioned the Environmental Care Campaign to clean Ghana, skill and livelihood training for its members, among others in the past two years as part of its vision to transform lives and society.
