🟢 Humiliation by some Bishops , Overseers, demonic seduction by agents of dark world plus secret envy of God’s-servants , Indiscipline of Pastors, Ministers are retarding forces of the Christiandom.

Confusion has overtaken an Anglican community after a Bishop issued a suspension letter to a clergy under his diocese on charges of indiscipline and misconduct in Anambra state Nigeria.

Several calls put across the Bishop to hear the side of hid story did not go through at the time of filling this report by 9News Nigeria.

Research report by our News team has it that similar incident happened in a particular Catholic Church in same state and is gradually becoming a pattern in the exercise of such unwarranted authority by superior bishops over clergymen across churches.

Criticism have gone viral in condemning severe humiliations junior clergy pass through in the tutorial hands of their superiors and its overturned translations before the public.

Apart from Anglican and Catholic churches, majority of the pentecostal including the Orthodox churches are worst refered in practice of such ungodly tutoring, doctrines and unbiblical dogma.

Working under some of these Bishops and overseers is hell to so many junior ministers and pastors who may not have all it takes to open their personal branches but learning the process from Superiors.

Against this backdrop, many junior pastors and clergy are stubborn and hellbent to corruption in the christiandom and are not ready to pass through the pains of tutoring, God’s standard authority and direction of the laws and orders of the church and other bible teachings.

Some ministers of the gospel also believe in their spiritual calling without passing through the training and studies. This has yielded the proliferation of churches and biblical translations and teachings that led to the level of confusion and disagreement within the ministers here and there.

However, it is rare nowadays to dictate real clergy from fake ones, soul lifting churches from abracadabra ministers who have joined the flock for some mischievous gains and mundane satisfactions.

This time around is the turn of the Anglican Bishop of Nnewi Diocese, Rt. Rev. Chukwuka Ndubuisi Obi, who has withdrawn the ordination license of Rev. Agoziem Isreal Okafor due to irreconcilable differences.

Rev. Okafor, formerly of Church of Pentecost, Anglican communion, resigned after being transferred to Dame Irene Okwuosa Memorial Convent by the bishop.

By the rejection of his transfer to a new station, maybe on personal grounds and reasons not stated in this story, Bishop Obi announced his dismissal and cautioned church members against doing business with him, as he is no longer accountable to the Diocese and the Anglican Church.

9News reveals that same clergyman Agoziem popularly called Pastor Gozie , already have problems in Amichi Diocese, when he was church teacher under Bishop Ikeako before he left to Nnewi.

On the foregoing, the Nnewi Anglican Bishop has allegedly withdrew the ordination license of the Priest pending the next line of action as we are yet to establish contact with clergy Agoziem.
