From Swaziland-
The Anglican Church in Swaziland says it continues to have confidence in Bishop Meshack Mabuza despite his quitting the church’s leadership.
As exclusively disclosed by the Times, the news of Mabuza’s resignation was communicated to the members on Saturday during a special Diocese and council meeting held at Thokoza church centre.
The meeting was to officially release a report of an investigation that had been done on allegations levelled against the bishop last year.
As a result of the investigation, Mabuza had stopped from preaching for over seven months until it was delivered.
It is of note that the bishop was cleared of all allegations levelled against him.
The Times can further disclose that this is not the end of the matter. The church has since requested the Archbishop and Metropolitan of the Anglican Church of Southern Africa, The Most Reverend Dr Thabo Cecil Makgoba expressing their desire to have Bishop Mabuza remain in charge until December 31.
It is said during the meeting on Saturday the person who delivered the report said the Archbishop would be in charge of the Swaziland chapter immediately after the retirement before the appointment of a new bishop.
