Chukwuma who faulted the order of government for churches and places of worship not to open, said it was unfortunate and wrong to categorise church and worship centres with drinking palours, night clubs, markets and companies.
The church is rightly categorized. It does not offer any essential service and should be rightly closed, same as any other religious house. From the list, only MARKETS and some COMPANIES offering essential service should be allowed to operate under strict observation of social distancing.

I've always known him as a the only Bishop whose ministry is immune from political influence.

See Christians condemning him and asking him to obey govt. Daniel, Shadrach, mishack and abardneggo etc did they all obey govt? This is the time to know true men of God not the once that order the closure of Churches. No true Bishop will formally order for churches entrusted to his care to be closed.

I tell you when the anti Christ comes, the big pastors and Bishops will be the ones to give the government the moral legitimacy to prosecute the tiny minority real Christians for their disobedience and "deviant behavior" and urge their followers to obey the anti Christ and ignore the " conspiracy theory "

Weda it's spiritual or social, gathering is gathering.The Bible says when two or more us gathered for my sake. .....No need to gather in a church.Stay home ,stay safe pray with family or neighbours this trying times.God isn't a sadist.Follow the principles of gathering in twos or a little more,and that's it.

Keep quiet, Mr Antichrist! The church doors must not be locked to worshippers. He that tries to save his life will lose it. He that gives it for CHRIST sake will save it (Matthew 16:25).
Leave the church alone in peace. Their lives are not yours. Let CHRIST worry about them.

The bishop didn't flout the order as far as I am concerned, because he did mention that he has provided washing equipments and maintained social distance as well as gathering not more than 50 per time,,

He only maintained that he would not shut down the doors of the church building,, we need to keep praying to God for his mercies and Devine help over this pandemic

Buhari is like a dead rat before God shey u knw
He's still the government, even God said this himself.

Romans 13:1-2 says: "Obey the government, for God is the One who has put it there. There is no government anywhere that God has not placed in power. So those who refuse to obey the law of the land are refusing to obey God, and punishment will follow.

Not like churches where banned, we all know what's going on, after this everyone can go back to their lives.

Are the churches in Enugu completely stopped from holding services or they are told not to exceed 50 in their gathering? Please those living there should answer this question. If they were told to completely shut down, then it is a counsel from the pit of hell designed to attack the church but if the numbers are limited, everyone should obey that order.

It is not about toothlessness, it is about reorientation through the various stakeholders.
I like this Bishop, he is a fearless human right advocate. But on this, he should think twice. Many Nigerians that are doing gragra now, will run and hide, God forbids, if Death toll gets to 1000 a day in Nigeria.

This particular bishop Chukwuma has always just been a staunch hater of Buhari and anything APC. I'm pretty sure his defying of the sit at home order has nothing to do with spirituality, but rather just a desperation for political rebellion.

This is what happens when the government is a toothless bull dog. No one has been used as scape goat so far, despite flaunting this order.

If you talk against Buhari's government now, DSS will be at their best to arrest you. Where are the DSS now when you need them?

In a sane clime, this man should be in kirikiri maximum prison by now. This is a treasonable murder offence of deliberate disregard and disobedience of the government, capable of leading to loss of lives.

We are fighting this fight against pandemic and some so called religious people are bring us down.

This should not be taken likely going forward.

Underage comment. Did you even read the full story?

He said he is observing social distancing and that is what the government should ensure instead of shutting down churches.

Because you’re a Nigerian with backward mentality you think sending him to kirikiri is the best and who told you other pastors will not do the same despite that? How many will you arrest? Why not listen to his opinion and dialogue with him?

@Gunpoint, this is my point. The Bishop is 100% right



Bishop Chukwuma who faulted the order of government for churches and places of worship not to open, said it was unfortunate and wrong to categorise church and worship centres with drinking palours, night clubs, markets and companies.

The cleric said he would not shut the churches because he is not the owner, as the church belongs to Jesus Christ, adding that if people were stopped from “running to their God in worship in a time like now the whole world was confusion, where would they run to for safety, help and deliverance?”
Ask yourself...is it only in beer parlor and clubs that the virus can spread! Think na.
