Pastor Amoateng pioneers Free Compassion Boutique
People queuing for provision
Ghanaian Pastor and Founder of Power of Worship International, Daniel Amoateng has activated the nouvelle Free Compassion Boutique in the wake of the harsh economic hardship in Ghana and across the world.
He has led his church congregation to provide basic needs like bags of rice, packs of water and drinks plus other gifts like clothes, shoes, fabrics, laces, bags, suitcases, jewelry to neighbours as well as the general community.
The rising cost of living coupled with the declining incomes has seen thousands slowly slide further into the poverty line. A situation so precarious some cannot even afford to pay their utility bills.
All these real problems birthed the Free Compassion Boutique, the brainchild of Pastor Daniel Amoateng, with the sole aim of providing the much needed care for believers and non believers.
The initiative has provided a further line of support by paying the electricity and water bills of some deprived persons in the church’s local community.
Pastor Daniel Amoateng is convinced that this activity will go to show the love, compassion and the of sharing, taught from the pulpit, being shown in action at a difficult time like this.
The Free Compassion Boutique, the first of its kind in the country, must be the norm to reflect the ministry of Jesus Christ on earth and the spread of love through the provision of the basic needs will benefit not only church members but also people in the neighbourhoods and across the country.
The first major activity for this initiative saw thousands of people from all parts of the capital assemble at the Spintex Branch known as the Testimony City to receive clothes, shoes, jewellery, some designer bags, clothing fabrics, suitcases and many more.

Many SOEs have been used as mere instruments for personal wealth accumulation –Pres.Mahama
President John Dramani Mahama has expressed concern over the misuse of State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) for personal financial gain by individuals in leadership positions.
Speaking during a meeting with Chief Executives of specified entities under the State Interest and Governance Authority (SIGA) on Thursday, March 13, the President directly attributed the dire state of SOEs to their leadership, accusing chief executives, management teams, and governing boards of prioritising personal enrichment over organisational efficiency.
He pointed to bloated budgets, unjustified allowances, and unnecessary expenditures as factors draining public funds while SOEs continue to rely on government bailouts.
“Many SOEs have been used as mere instruments for personal wealth accumulation by appointees. The chief executives, management, and boards of these enterprises are responsible for this situation. Some SOEs have become perennial loss-makers, draining public funds with bloated budgets, unjustified allowances, and unnecessary expenditures while relying on government bailouts as if entitled to them. Many of these entities are at their lowest point in the entire history of the Fourth Republic,” he said.
President Mahama further noted that many SOEs have been plagued by inefficiencies, corruption, and mismanagement, leading to consistent financial losses. He cited the 2023 State Ownership Report by the State Interests and Governance Authority (SIGA), which highlighted systemic inefficiencies and wasteful expenditures within these entities.
He therefore reaffirmed his commitment to reforming under-performing SOEs and ensuring they serve national interests.
He warned that loss-making SOEs will no longer be tolerated and will either be merged, privatised, or closed.
“I will assess you based on your performance. If you do not align with the pace of the reset agenda, you may be asked to step aside. If that adds to the horror movie, so be it,” he added.
