Gospel singer Francis Amo has spoken publicly for the first time about his recent arrest, confirming that his disagreement with the Church of Pentecost, which led to the incident, has now been resolved outside the courts.

Speaking in an interview on Radio XYZ on April 21, 2026, Amo explained that the issue began after he recorded a cover of a Church of Pentecost song titled “Ne Din Ne Jesus.”

According to him, he had initially been invited by the church to perform the song at one of their events.

He said that while ministering, he felt inspired to add his own creative touch to the song, which led him to produce a worship-style version.

Amo noted that the song’s message was powerful and evangelistic, and he believed he had the ability to elevate it further through his rendition.

The situation, however, later escalated into what he described as a shocking and painful experience.

He revealed that he was invited by the police for questioning, only to be informed upon arrival that he was under arrest. He was later granted bail and released the same day.

Amo confirmed that the song has since been taken down, and both parties have agreed to resolve the matter privately.

He added that after discussions with the church leadership, they mutually decided to drop the case.

Despite the resolution, the singer admitted that the incident had a significant emotional impact on him and his family.

He expressed particular concern about how his children learned of his arrest through social media, which he said caused him deep pain.
