Leadership tussle in African Church worsens as South-South Council reportedly sacks South-West bishops

Bishop of Uyo, James Bamidele, from Ekiti State and the Archbishop of Calabar province, A. A Odufuwa, who are from the south-west, have all been removed from the south-south as the crisis lingers.A source, who spoke with reporters in Uyo on Sunday also disclosed that provinces in Edo and Delta, Calabar and Rivers states have threatened a breakaway from the Western provinces of the church.

It was alleged that Udofia was being harassed by church leaders in the Southwest with the intention of ending his tenure abruptly. It was also gathered that the primate was advised by his people to temporarily relocate to Uyo until the crisis is over, especially with the alleged threats to his life and that of his family by some parishioners of the church in Lagos.

Udofia stressed that it was necessary to pray for God’s intervention in the crisis as he would not want his tenure to be credited with infamous history of the beginning of fragmentation of the hitherto unified African Church.

'APC Will Lose 2023 Election If It Disrespects Zoning Of Presidential Ticket To The South-West' | Sahara Reporters'I'm not a prophet of doom, but I can confidently say that given my over three decades experience, I'm afraid if the APC decides to retain power, not only the party but northerners would lose woefully... In 2010 when President Yar'Adua of blessed memory passed on, the indication that power should remain in the North was on the front burner. But the North was persuaded to allow the then Vice President Goodluck Jonathan to be, on condition that power would return to the north in 2015.' 😂 😂 😂 Let's wait and see There won't be an APC before 2023. The north will disintegrate the party and move to other party to hold power beyond 2023. The Tinubu ambitions will backfire in 2023.
