ASSEMBLIES OF GOD NIGERIA SUSPENDS 152 MINISTERS

We can truthfully recall that the leadership tussle in Assemblies of God Nigeria has gone from one stage to the other. While a faction of the church is trying every possible best to bring back peace and make the body become one again, the other faction is just geared at DESTROYING the church the more.

We can remember that few weeks ago, Dr. Chidi Okoroafor's group published a felonious disclaimer, suspending some ministers despite that he (Chidi Okoroafor) has been operating illegally.
Today, The General Superintendent and his executives decided to put a stop to every mess that has been on-going for the past three years. They decided in their Executive Committee meeting to say NO to illegalities and thereby, suspending an Hundred and Fifty-Two (152) including Chidi Okoroafor (PhD), Rev. Ejikeme Ejim, Rev. Godwin Amaowoh and Rev. Vincent Alaje.



"Consequently upon the rebellious act of some members who on March 6th, 2014 attempted a palace coup to remove Rev. Prof. Paul Emeka as the General Superintendent of Assemblies of God Nigeria, and their continuous rebellion and lack of remorse for their insubordinate behaviour, the Executive Committee of the Church hereby reaffirms the suspension and dismissal of the underlisted ministers, members and the persons whose photographs are displayed herein previously effected at the 35th Council Meeting of the Church..."

Their letters has since reached them and the general is being informed about these actions too.

Like our source said, "More are still coming"

YOU ARE FRUADLENT! Supreme Court tells Chidi Okoroafor & Group



The Crisis rocking Assemblies of God Nigeria has continued to linger with surprises coming up everyday. In a press conference held by a faction of the church led by Rev. Prof. Paul Emeka yesterday documents from the supreme court, attorney general of the federation and others showed that the Supreme Court Judgement of Feb. 24th, 2017 didn’t favor any of the parties but that status quo should be maintained.

Furthermore, the General Superintendent, Rev. Prof. Paul Emeka in his speech, nullified the purported DISCLAIMER from the faction of Rev. Chidi Okoroafor suspending over a Hundred and Twenty-Nine (129) Ministers. Rev. Prof. Paul Emeka calls in his speech calls it madness.

YET ANOTHER FROM AG POWER TUSSLE



POLICE in Enugu on Tuesday barred members of the Assemblies of God loyal to the General Superintendent of the church, Reverend Prof Paul Emeka from gaining entry into the National Secretariat of the church located at Plot R8, Ozobulu Street, Independence Lay-out, Enugu.

A detached armed policemen fired tear gas sporadically into the members of the church to disperse them from marching into the secretariat which they lost to their rivalry group as a result of illegal invasion with any order from the court led by Reverend Chidi Okoroafor who claimed he is now the General Superintendent of the church.

Scores of the protesting Assemblies of God members mostly women were wounded while moving peacefully to their church national secretariat the security operatives who insisted the Secretariat is no-go area for them.

The Reverend Emeka supporters had earlier gathered at Assemblies of God, New Haven, also in the metropolis where they were addressed by their Leader (Reverend Paul Emeka).

Reverend Emeka told them that the document the Reverend Chidi Okoroafor is parading is fake as it did not come from Supreme Court.


According to Reverend Emeka, If the Supreme Court has given an order that Chidi should go in and Paul Emeka to go out, I would have gone whether Chidi is right or wrong

Why use self-help if Supreme Court had given such an order to exit me from office?

What pains me most is that Chdi was my student. I taught him. I want to let you know that Paul Emeka is not the problem in Assemblies of God. Even if I resign now many people have sworn no to work under Chidi and his cohort.

The Cleric maintained, The occupation of the Secretariat is evil. They want us to surrender. But we will not surrender to coup plotters. We will not surrender to those who do not know their Bible. We will not surrender to those who came to Assembly because of money. We will surrender to truth. We will surrender to God.

Let police do what it should do. The Police should not pretend. However, the Court has told us to take back our possession. We are going to reclaim our secretariat, Emeka remarked.

In the suit no: FHC/EN/CSS/52/2017 which was made available to NIGERIAN TRIBUNE in Enugu, the Federal High Court, Enugu, presided over by Justice R. O. Dugbo-Oghoghorie granted an interim order to Emeka group, retraining the police from stopping, restraining, preventing or in any manner whatsoever continuing to inhibit, lock out or exclude the Applicants namely Reverends Dr Raphael Itotoh, Emmanuel Ngene and Daniel Amaugo.

The clergymen had challenged the Commissioner of Police, Enugu State, Inspector-General of Police, Police Serving Commission and Attorney-General of the Federation at the Federal High Court, Enugu over the alleged illegal occupation of their secretariat by the police.
Update reaching us yesterday afternoon that It may interest you yesterday know that the supreme court has given interpretation to the supreme court judgement sign by the chief registrar signed by Mr Ibrahim Gold, Director(Legal, Processes & Archives).
It states:
We are not mindful of the order 8 Rule 18:
     When the Court directs any judgement to be enforced by another Court.
     a Certificate under the seal of the court and the hand of the Presiding Justice setting forth the judgement shall be transmitted by the Registrar to such other Court,  and the latter shall enforce such Judgement in terms of the certificate.

We never transmitted any certificate to warrant enforcement. Do accept the assurances of the Chief Registrar's warm regards.
