Cold War In The House Of God Abakaliki Diocese A Case Study by chukatony(m): 4:08pm On Sep 22, 2009
BISHOP OKORO, JOHN ODEY; TRUTH AS A MORAL JU-JITSU
When fools fail, the wise laugh. When the wise fail, animals in the bush mourn their folly!
I am afraid that Odeism is fast becoming a school and ideology that no arm or battalion can stand! If the people relinquish one third of their belief in Odey to Okoro, Abakaliki Diocese would be heaven on earth. But how possible?

The intractable cold war is Abakaliki Diocese can best be captured in the above parlance. This caption settles the endless, but dangerous melodrama going on in the Diocese where Bishop Dr M.N.Okoro and Fr. Dr.Emmanuel Obuna are the chief and major characters, then, the presbyterium constitute a cult of silence over decades of ecclesiastical vandalism that has tainted the Church in Abakaliki in terrible image. Rather than align the people of God on the path of salvation and chart a course for their liberation in their collective strive to attain Heaven, like the prophets of old did; Bishop Okoro has been ostensibly preoccupied by the institution and promotion of divide and rule which had led to infighting, cliqueism and politics of exlcusion and scramble for assimilation of newly ordained priests into different quasi chartels that now characterise the Diocese.

Okoro and his advisers should know that their achievements in Abakaliki is as short as burying priests who died mysteriously annually, break up of priests to start their own organisations, internal rancour and bickering amonsgt priests in their cliques, symptomatic of cult phenomenon, inability to give birth to sister Diocese, a crop of sycophants as priests, a presbyterium weighed down by the trauma of his political bucaneering. The achievements of Okoro as a priest and Bishop cannot be equalled by what Odey has recorded in his 25 years of preisthood; and that is where they part ways. It is an clear issue of conscience and history!

Okoro has soaked himself in his desperate and blind pursuit of Odey, a just man. If the energy deployed in the jostles to tame Odey has been directed to preach the truth; that the people of God have been caged by rampaging poverty and misery, looting of treasury and materialism making the catholic precepts completely impracticable in present day Nigeria, he would have had more disciples that John whose head he’s been calling for!

Bishop Okoro holds a DD (Doctor of Divinity), a foremost degree in the Church, by this acquisition of this very degree, he is an authority in Catholic Theology and doctrines. His omniscient secretary, http://odeism..com
