Former UT Bank boss and founder, Captain (Rtd) Prince Kofi Amoabeng, says fear has never shaped his life, even at the height of his legal troubles.<\/p>\n

Speaking on Joy News\u2019 AM Show on Monday, Mr Amoabeng said his upbringing and faith have given him a deep sense of calm and courage.<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause of the values that were instilled in me, I don\u2019t fear any human being,\u201d he said. \u201cI don\u2019t. But on the other side, I respect everybody.\u201d<\/p>\n

His comments come years after the collapse of UT Bank and the legal battles that followed. Mr Amoabeng has consistently described the period as one of intense personal testing, marked by public scrutiny, financial loss and court processes that reshaped his life.<\/p>\n

Despite the ordeal, he said he remains physically and emotionally strong.<\/p>\n

\u201cI eat well, I sleep well, and I prayed to God and said, let me see the end of this,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd I surely will see the end of it, because I have a lot of life in me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Asked what the end of the case would mean to him, Mr Amoabeng played down any sense of triumph.<\/p>\n

\u201cOh, really, it\u2019s part of my journey,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd for them, I wouldn\u2019t even celebrate it.\u201d<\/p>\n

He rejected the idea that closure would be a moment for public vindication.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo, I don\u2019t think I was celebrated,\u201d he said. \u201cI just say that\u2019s fine. This is how God kept me in check and for me to serve the purpose that I have to serve.\u201d<\/p>\n

For him, faith has been central to enduring the experience.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou see, when you believe in God, things become easier,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

When the host asked whether he had always held such strong beliefs, Mr Amoabeng said his faith was deeply rooted but that he had never felt compelled to advertise it.<\/p>\n

\u201cIncidentally, yes, but I don\u2019t put it out,\u201d he said. \u201cI don\u2019t owe anybody to tell you I believe in God or not.\u201d<\/p>\n

He recalled how public perceptions of him were often shaped by isolated comments, especially around religion.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd therefore, sometimes I make a statement as they want,\u201d he said. \u201cThey say, \u2018Oh, that guy doesn\u2019t even believe in God\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n

He referred to past criticism over remarks about tithing. \u201cAnd this, and I know at some point in time, they said, I don\u2019t believe in God, because I said something about tithe,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Mr Amoabeng traced his values back to childhood. \u201cListen, I was raised by my grandmother,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd at age four, five, I\u2019ll go to church, Presbyterian Church, and sing.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said those early years shaped his moral foundation. \u201cShe gave me the fundamentals of the values that I have,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He also spoke about the influence of his parents. \u201cAnd I was raised by parents who were really like my father was my best friend,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

According to him, those experiences explain his outlook today. \u201cAnd because of the values that were instilled in me, I don\u2019t fear any human being,\u201d he repeated.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
