Former Dome-Kwabenya MP Sarah Adwoa Safo has broken her silence on an alleged attempt on her life, claiming she survived after her vehicle was struck by 48 bullets.

The former legislator is said to have been attacked on June 21, 2026, while she was inside her vehicle outside the home of her brother, Nana Kwadwo Safo Akofena.

Speaking in an interview with Angel TV on Tuesday, July 28, 2026, Adwoa Safo said she believes her survival was through the intervention of God, describing the incident as a deliberate effort to kill her.

She argued that the intensity of the attack indicated that she was specifically targeted.

“I would have lost my life if not for God’s protection. I survived 48 bullets fired at my car, and not many people could survive such an incident. If it had been only one or two shots, I might have thought otherwise, but the fact that 48 bullets were fired shows that I was the target and it was a planned attack,” she said.

According to Adwoa Safo, most of the bullets were directed at the rear seat of her vehicle, which she normally occupied, but she happened to be behind the steering wheel on that particular day.

She revealed that doctors who treated her after she travelled outside Ghana expressed surprise at how she survived the attack, which she described as a testament to divine protection.

“The doctors who attended to me abroad were amazed and asked how I managed to survive. I believe God saved me. The people behind the attack aimed at the back seat because they expected me to be sitting there, but fortunately, I was the one driving,” she stated.

The former MP explained that she had gone alone to visit her brother to discuss a family issue concerning the succession of their late father, Apostle Kwadwo Safo.

She said she was not accompanied by her driver or security detail because the incident occurred on a weekend when she usually moved without them.

Adwoa Safo said her visit was intended to help find a peaceful resolution to disagreements surrounding her brother’s succession.

“On weekends, I do not move with my bodyguards or driver, so I went alone to meet my brother. I went there to have a discussion and find an amicable solution with those who had raised objections to his succession to our father,” she added.
