Apostle Kantanka's vision for Gomoa Mpota Centre

The will detailed plans for a purpose-built facility in Gomoa Mpota in Ghana's Central Region, to be named the Apostle Kwadwo Safo Centre, where he claimed he should be buried.

Kantanka specified that the project should be developed on his six-acre plot in the area and that this is where he wished to be laid to rest.

The proposed centre would house 12 large rooms, each serving a distinct purpose. The first room was earmarked as a library celebrating the can-do spirit of Africans, while the second would serve as a cinema and movie hall screening his videos for visitors and tourists.

A Pan-African hall was designated as the third room, followed by a prayer room, a photo gallery displaying his portraits, and a room dedicated to his inventions.

The seventh room would recognise those who supported his foundation through charitable donations, and the eighth would showcase Ghana's rich cultural heritage.

The eleventh room was left deliberately empty, and the twelfth was described as a rainbow space to function as a theatre.

The will also made reference to appointed trustees and named staff members, though full details of those individuals were not disclosed in the video.

Apostle Kantanka's strict instructions on his burial

Beyond the architectural vision, the will contained pointed instructions about who should and should not be involved in his funeral rites.

Apostle Kantanka stated clearly that no member of his maternal family should handle his corpse or play any part in the funeral arrangements, stipulating that they should attend only as guests.

He also stated that he did not wish to receive a state burial.
