According to an Angel FM report, Samuel Amankwaah, based in the US, shipped a car and asked Pastor Love to clear it from the port.

After some time, the pastor had not been able to sell the car so Amankwaah asked him to hold on to the sale and wait for his return to Ghana in April 2016.

When Amankwaah arrived in Ghana, he duly paid back Pastor Love's money, but the latter refused to return the car to him, saying that he had sold it. Wondering why his friend would sell the car and still take money from him, Amankwaah reported to the police. The matter has been at a Circuit Court in Accra since 2017.

The report indicates that Pastor Love had argued that the previous judge sitting on the case had not indicated that he was a 'fraudster', but the judge ignored him and pronounced judgment.
