Recent reports are have it that the General Superintendent Rev Dr Chidi Okoroafor led other officers to
Evangel House in Enugu on Wednesday evening to take over the church’s
national secretariat from the former General Superintendent, Rev. Paul
Emeka.
According to reports, Emeka refused to vacate his office in the
secretariat, and continued to parade himself as General Superintendent,
after his removal by the church’s General Council on March 6, 2014.
Initial
attempts by the new General Superintendent of the church, Rev. Paul
Okoroafor, and other leaders of the church, to recover the national
secretariat were thwarted by Emeka, who again went to court to insist
that he was the church’s leader.
Violence was, however, averted
as the police cordoned off the streets around the secretariat, after
arresting some of Emeka’s loyalists. The arrested persons, were led away
in handcuffs, included a woman.
