War In Brotherhood Of The Cross And Star by aniekanekahoffi: 5:06pm On Jun 27, 2020
A Federal High Court in Calabar has adjourned further proceedings till July 2 in a lawsuit challenging His Holiness Rowland Olumba Obu and the illegal leadership of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star.

The plaintiffs in the suit marked FHC/CA/CS/34/2020, His Holiness Obu Olumba Obu, Bishop Effiong Ante Etim and Deaconess Christine William Okpala are urging the court to restrain Rowland Olumba Obu from parading himself as the leader of the church having not been appointed in accordance with the provisions of Section 559 (1), (2) and (3) and Section 587 (2), (3) and (4) of the Companies and Allied Matters Act and Section 2 (1), (2), (3) and (4) of the Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star (1964) .

Other defendants in the suit are Bishop Enun Obu, Pastor Ebenezer Isokaoran, Bishop Emmanuel Obu, Her Holiness Ajah Olumba Obu, True Christ Witness Bassey Unaowo, His Lordship Bishop Biobarakuma Deji, and XT AMB. Uche Raymonds.

Others are His Lordship Bishop Emmanuel Esezebor, Deaconess Comfort Adebayo-Ijeh, His Lordship Bishop Irefin, the Registered Trustees of The Brotherhood of the Cross and Star and Corporate Affairs Commission.

The plaintiffs who are represented in the suit by Chief Robert Clark, SAN, also want the court to determine if the 12th and 13th defendants in the suit being the Brotherhood of the cross and Star and the Corporate Affairs Commission complied with the provisions of the Section 588 of the Companies and Allied Matters Act in altering and amending the Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star which acted as the constitution of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star.

The plaintiffs want the court to declare the appointment of 1st to 11th defendants in the suit as trustees of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star and their subsequent confirmation by the Corporate Affairs Commission as unlawful, illegal and not in the accordance with the laid down provisions of the law.

The plaintiffs also want an order restraining His Holiness Rowland Olumba Obu and the 10 other trustees of the church from parading themselves as/and or carrying out the functions of trustees of the Brotherhood of the Cross Star.

Furthermore, the plaintiffs prayed for an order of court quashing the purported Memorandum of the Brotherhood of the Cross Star dated July 10th, 2003 approved and registered by Corporate Affairs Commission.

Meanwhile, findings by our reporter revealed that two children of the late leader Olumba Olumba (Ibum and Rowland) had been at loggerheads over the leadership of the universal church over time.
Top sources within the church informed our reporter a part of the church recognized late Queen Mother Ibum Olumba Obu, as the leader of the church and not Rowland Olumba Obu, whom the reporter described as a rebel who had no interest in the church while the father was running the church.

According to him The Brotherhood of the Cross and Star recognized late Queen Mother Ibum Olumba Olumba Obu, because she was given the attorney to lead the church by their father. Any other person who parades himself as the leader of the church is an impostor because the person does not have the mandate of the congregation to lead the church.

Our source further accused His Holiness Rowland Olumba Obu of promoting the division of the church by forcing himself as the leader of the church against the laid down laws that makes provision for the running of the church.

Rowland Obu has sowed seeds of discord in the church by allowing his interest to overwhelm him. He has been running the church as a personal venture and has pushed away previous principal members from the leadership of the church. Hitherto, he has no interest in this church.

He promised that the leadership of the church will do all within their powers to restore sanity to the church.

It is therefore left to be seen how this latest imbroglio to affect the Brotherhood of the Cross Star will pan out.

Laff they sweet me die!
Imagine shameless mortal man with a blasphemous title "His Holiness"? Holiness belongs to only the Almighty God Jehovah, the invisible Supreme Lord of the Universe, The Alpha and The Omega. To him alone belong the glory. He is worthy of our praises.

If the holy Angel that showed Apostle John the revelation of things that is to occurred declined and even cautioned John not to bow to him, who are these mere mortal with the audacity share the glory of God??

The Devil is certainly in charge of these churches

God says be holy for i am holy.
Men can attain the title of holiness by living a holy life.
Although the man in question "olumba’s son” and the whole of his church members are peace rivals.

When Jesus Christ said, Be ye Holy even as God is Holy" , He definitely did not mean what Olumba Olumba refers to as "holy".

Jesus Christ in fact meant that we should love our neighbor(our enemies as well) the same exact way we love our own selves. That is what He meant by that.

The entire setup since its inception has been anti-christ to boot.
