Investigation: Prophet Eric Isaiah Adusah has reportedly been arrested in connection with the death of his wife, Charmaine Speirs

A pregnant British pastor was found dead in a hotel bathroom in Ghana - and her Christian leader husband has reportedly been arrested for murder.

Charmaine Adusah, 41, and her husband Eric Isaiah Adusah, 28, the head pastor at the Tottenham, north London, branch of Global Light Revival Ministries, had attended a church programme in the west African nation's city of Koforidua.

Adusah stayed at a guest house, while his wife stayed with host pastor, Bishop Yaw Adu. After the religious event, the couple decided to enjoy some time together before returning to the UK.

Daily Guide Ghana reported the couple had a disagreement about how long they should stay in Ghana - Charmaine wanted to spend a month there, while her husband argued that was far too long.

The couple checked into the Royal Mac Dic Hotel on Monday March 16 for five days, according to police.

The next day, Adusah claimed he had other engagements back in the UK and left the hotel at the dawn.

Religious: The couple are pastors at the Tottenham branch of Global Light Revival Ministries

He reportedly told the front desk that his wife, originally from Arbroath in Scotland, did not want to be disturbed and staff should only respond to her if she requested something.

After three days hotel staff became worried and used a spare key to get in the room.

There they found the three months pregnant woman, allegedly in the bathtub, who was described as "lying prostrate with a white towel wrapped around her, almost in a decomposed state," according to the paper.

Ministry: The website of the church

It was claimed Adusah was arrested on suspicion of murder, but this has yet to be confirmed.

Mrs Adusah, maiden name Spiers, is a former NHS radiography assistant. The pair married last September after a whirlwind romance.

She has an eight-year-old son from a previous relationship in Wales.

He is staying with his father, a British man, reports the Mail on Sunday.

Global Light Revival Ministries did not wish to comment.

Scene: The hotel where the body was found

A statement on their website reads: "Global Light Revival Ministry regret to announce the passing away of our 1st Lady Charmaine Isaiah Adusah.

"The Ministry express our deepest sympathy to our Prophet Eric Isaiah and the Speirs family and stand with them in prayer at this time. Thank you. God Bless."

Global Light Revival Church describes itself on its website as a growing international, multi-cultural church.

A Foreign Office spokesman said: "We can confirm the death of a British national in Ghana. Mr Adusah has not requested consular assistance."
