From Nigeria-THE N5million donated to the Millennium Anglican Church, Odo Owa Ekiti by Ekiti State Governor, Dr Kayode Fayemi, is allegedly tearing the church apart.
It would be recalled that Fayemi donated N5 million to the church during the burial of its late primate, Most Rev. Abiodun Adetiloye on January 19, 2013.
Shortly after the donation, the leaders and clergy of the church were said to have met where the issue of the donation was discussed.
Members were said to have resolved on how to utilize the money among others.
It was gathered that they agreed that among others, it would be used to renovate the church, buy a bus for evangelism while N1million would be put into a special account.
However, the Bishop of Ekiti West Anglican Communion, Most Rev. Oludare Oke, was said to have told the members including the vicar, Reverend Mike Ogunniyi, that the N5 million was deposited in a fixed Account because it was an endowment fund and not a gift to the Church alone.
For allegedly failing to heed the advice of the Bishop, the Bishop was said to have ordered the demotion of the vicar from Archdeacon to Canon for alleged insubordination.
