The event, which unfolded in a visibly celebratory atmosphere, saw Safo Akofena interacting with both members and leadership of the church as he attended the Kristo Asafo Mission of Ghana (KAMOG) meeting.
A TikTok video shared by Ghanaian blogger Urban Insight captured the lively scenes from the event.
The footage showed a group of men dancing energetically on a raised platform in front of a white-draped backdrop, with the crowd responding enthusiastically, many raising their hands in participation.
Akofena, dressed in a black-and-red outfit and wearing sunglasses, stood out as a focal point amid the celebrations, surrounded by others who matched his energy on what appeared to be a stage.
The infectious atmosphere and communal spirit of the occasion quickly caught viewers' attention online, contributing to the video going viral across social media platforms.
His presence at the gathering carried symbolic weight, marking his re-emergence into public life after a period that had drawn widespread attention and scrutiny.
Recently, Akofena was released on a GH¢500,000 bail with sureties following his appearance at the Adenta Circuit Court in June 2026.
He was arrested along with eight other individuals in connection with the June 22 shooting incident involving his sister and former Dome-Kwabenya MP Sarah Adwoa Safo at his residence in Accra.

During the gathering, Akofena reinforced the Kristo Asafo Mission's commitment to faith, unity, innovation, and service.
The meeting served as a platform for him to reconnect with the Mission's community and signal continuity in leadership despite the turbulence surrounding his recent legal troubles.
