Agyinasare Nogokpo Saga: Fasting Was Declared After Pastor's Flight En Route To US Was Forced Backed To Accra

• Archbishop Agyinasare's plane suffered a major setback while travelling from Accra to Washington DC last week
• The details of the technical glitch on the United Airlines have not been disclosed in full, however, it was so serious that the flight had to return to Accra midair pushing back flight schedules by many hours
• Not long after the incident, his church Perez Chapel International declared a one-week fasting and prayer over the Nogokpo saga
• Many believe the Nogokpo shrine, believed to be a thunder god caused the technical challenges that Agyinasare's flight suffered

It has emerged that the flight on which respected preacher, Archbishop Charles Agyinasare, was travelling to the United States suffered a major technical challenge midway on Thursday, June 1, 2023, and had to return to Kotoka International Airport.

For many, the glitch with the United Airlines flight B788 to Washington DC last Thursday is the work of the revered Nogokpo shrine, believed to be a thunder god.

One post on Twitter about the bizarre incident called it a "cosmic affair".

Due to the unplanned return of the flight to Accra, Agyinasare's scheduled arrival date on Friday, June 2, 2023, moved to Saturday, June 3, 2023.

In a video sighted by YEN.com.gh, Agyinasare is heard narrating the incident, albeit without details to his church members in the USA after arriving in the country.

"I was supposed to get here Friday morning, but we finally landed this afternoon...and I believe it's all part of God's plan because the Bible says the steps of a good man, are ordered by the Lord," he told his congregants who responded with a loud "Amen".
