A
spokesperson of the Christian Association of Nigeria has spoken out
about the controversy surrounding the retirement of Pastor Enoch
Adeboye.
Jim Obazee
The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has hailed Jim Obazee’s
removal as executive secretary of the Financial Reporting Council of
Nigeria, the News Agency of Nigeria reports.
He was fired by President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday night.
General Secretary Rev. Musa Asake said: ”The sack of Jim
(Obazee) is good riddance to bad rubbish. Anybody that wants to fight
the church will find himself where he does not want.
“Jim got to the position by the grace of God, but set out to
probe and destroy the church of God. I spoke with him several times on
this issue but he wouldn’t listen. He was going to take the church to
what is worse than Armageddon.
“Thank God the authorities have stepped in to right the wrong.
He should have been fired a long time ago and we don’t know why he was
left alone, but God’s time is always the best.
“That code should be thrown out completely because government
should not interfere with the church. The church is a no-go zone for the
government.
“Doing that has serious implications. Ig they attempt it, it will lead to confusion in the nation.”
Senior Pastor , Living Spring Chapel International, Lagos, Pastor Femi Emmanuel, said: “It
is a right step in the right direction. Government has no business
meddling in the internal structure and governance of the church.
“There is no government in the world that does that.
“Anyone who does that is incurring the wrath of God. Yes, there
could be financial regulation of churches but never in the internal
structure of the church.
“Everything that has to do with the internal structure and governance of the church must be expunged from the code.”
Obazee, a former pastor of the RCCG, said only 89 of the 23,216
registered churches in the country had complied with FRC provisions.
The leadership of CAN has slated an emergency meeting on the FRC code and other related matters.
CAN President Rev. Samson Ayokunle said the organisation’s lawyers
would review the issues and make their position known to the public.
Ayokunle spoke through his Media Assistant Pastor Bayo Oladeji.
“CAN will react at the right time and make its decision public.
We are studying the situation. CAN leadership will meet. Our lawyers
are studying the situation,” he said.
The church leaders were interviewed by The Nation newspaper.
