Anglican Church In Anambra Sacks Priest For Impregnating Woman Seeking For Help by Jenniferchuma10: 9:15am On Mar 12, 2022
The Anglican Diocese on the Niger has terminated the appointment of one of its priests, Rev Canon Lumenkriti Ebo, for allegedly getting a woman who came seeking for help pregnant.

Anglican Church in Anambra sacks priest for allegedly impregnating woman seeking for help
While the church accused Ebo of impregnating a lady who went to his adoration ministry by telling her she had to sleep with him to get healing, Ebo also accused the church of taking his legally married wife and accommodating her outside her matrimonial home.



Things became very heated between the church and the clergyman when the bishop withdrew the ordination license of Ebo over alleged immoral acts capable of undermining the reputation of the church.

Until the withdrawal of his ordination license recently, Ebo was running an adoration ministry at Umunya in Oyi Local Government Area of Anambra State.

Speaking on the face-off between the priest and the Diocese, the deputy chancellor of the Diocese on the Niger, Mr. Ben Uzuegbu (SAN) said the church decided to withdraw Ebo’s ordination license because it could no longer tolerate his excesses.

“The former priest was doing things that were unbecoming of a priest. The bishop had to call us, the legal team of the Diocese, to decide how to handle the man.



With what he had done, he ought to be in prison, but the church decided to be lenient with him, thinking that he would change.

But he refused to change and his immoral acts became a scandal such that it was in the public domain that he impregnated his secretary and was always beating his wife to stupor.

He was later suspended and when it was obvious that he did not want to mend his ways, the church decided to withdraw his license.”Uzuegbu told Vanguard

According to him, the Diocese on the Niger has a constitution that guides the activities of its priests, adding that it was wrong for Ebo to accuse the bishop of collecting N3 million from him every year when he, the priest, is an employee of the church.



“If a priest acquires property, it belongs to the Diocese. Monies paid by parishes belong to the Diocese, not the bishop, as he claimed. It was even discovered that he registered his adoration ministry with the Corporate Affairs Commission in his name in 2017, and that of his secretary and leaving out his legally married wife, contrary to the constitution guiding priests working in the Diocese.

He was also accused of telling a girl that having sex with her would heal her ailment which, according to the church, was something that could not be condoned in the church of God.” he said

Reacting to the allegations, the embattled priest said nobody can sack him, adding that he remains a priest in the order of Melchizedek.

While a priest is still human, acts like this ridicule the clergy. My Ernest prayer is that He who calls should have mercy and for God to strength all His servants who toil endlessly upon the fields of harvest; grant that their hands remain upon the Gospel plough as they appear at the feet of the Master when their years of toil have ended through Christ our Lord. Amen.

If you call yourself a man of God and you have not been accused to have had sexual relationship with a woman or women means you have not started .so what I mean is people must talk especially when they believe that you know what you are doing religiously. people will like to put you down.
