ASSEMBLIES OF GOD SUSPENDS CHIDI OVER SEXUAL MISCONDUCT

The other faction of Assemblies of God Nigeria yesterday March 4th, suspended their general superintendent (GS), Rev. Chidi Okoroafo over alleged sexual misconduct.

This comes almost six years after the GS Rev. Paul Emeka was allegely suspended over financial mismanagement in 2014.

The removal of Rev Prof. Emeka which was allegedly championed by Rev. Chidi Okoroafo opened the church up to crisis that was hardly resolved, leading to the church’s loss of members.

Evidently, the Assemblies of God is not owned by one man but by a group of leaders, wherefore, no one has autonomy and no one is above the constitution of the church.

Most Members of the church have expressed their reservations pointing

that the moves were more political discarding the evidences as shallow therefore Prof. Paul Emeka Remains their GS.

The tenure of the suspended leader was to end in 6 months and some argue that they should have waited to save the church’s reputation.

However, some contenders revoked saying God’s judgment is bigger than saving the church’s face.

Our sources had it that Ejim Ejikeme who is the deputy GS to Chidi Okoroafo have refused to assumed the office since the suspension of Chidi saying Chidi accuses him of masterminding his removal.

The church’s elders admonish its members to pray for the church as it has barely recovered from the previous scandal that rocked it.
