To those who loved Charmain Speirs, so much about her death doesn't make any sense.
The report indicates that to those who loved Charmain Speirs, so much about her death doesn’t make any sense.
It further notes that after a whirlwind romance and quickfire wedding, she was mysteriously found dead in a hotel bathtub in Ghana six months later.
Her Ghanaian husband, Eric Adusah, the head pastor of a Pentecostal church, was charged with her murder before being released due to lack of evidence.
The prophet, as he is known by his followers who believe he shares divine revelation directly from God, has denied any involvement in his wife’s death.
Last month, a BBC Disclosure documentary raised serious questions about Adusah’s account of the night his Scottish wife was last seen alive.
Friends and family told the BBC they were puzzled about why Charmain had left her seven-year-old son with members of her husband’s church while she went to Ghana alone.
In a new podcast series – Charmain and the Prophet – one woman, Elma Adams, says she may have the answer.
She says Charmain was “on a mission” to find out who her husband really was.
Elma, a devout Christian who is now in her 80s, had been Eric Adusah’s “Scottish mum” after they met in Edinburgh in 2012.
But she thinks the prophet used her and Charmain for his own gain.
Elma first encountered the prophet in a Christian bookshop in the Scottish capital and recalls that he seemed “very charming and easy to talk to”.
The pair exchanged numbers and Elma told him to phone if he ever needed help.
Several weeks later, he called and before long he was staying with Elma and her late husband George whenever he was in Scotland.
The prophet was based in London but his Global Light Revival church already had branches in Manchester and Dublin.
