The Regional Superintendent, Stephen Yaw Manu, explained in a telephone conversation with The Punch, that the issue of appointing a parish pastor for the parish had been on the front burner since March 2021. He said that the former parish pastor relocated to the United States of America. He claimed that after due consultations with the outgoing pastor, the parish, and the regional executives, he appointed the new pastor.
“The former resident pastor informed us of his permanent departure for the US, as well as his resignation from the church. We asked him to recommend one of his parish associates but he refused to do so. So we wrote to the General Council of the church, and the council asked me to put somebody there. The parish leadership said that they are not ready to receive any pastor because they owe the former pastor. We are saying that they should take the new pastor so that the church can pay.
The regional pastor said that he is empowered under the church constitution to appoint a parish pastor for the church and that he has done his due diligence by involving the district pastors and the regional executivesAll rights reserved.
