Assemblies Of God Church Sacks General Superintendent

These are not the best of times for The Assemblies of God Church, General Superintendent, Rev. (Dr.) Chidi Okoroafor.

The church has sacked him for an alleged immoral relationship with a United States (US) based woman, Mrs. Maurrissal Nwosu.

His dismissal was announced during the church’s General Committee emergency sitting recently.

The Panel which Investigated Okoroafor was headed by a former Lagos District Superintendent, Rev Isaac Mpamugo.

The Mpamugo-led panel was said to have established an immoral relationship between Okoroafor and Nwosu which it said was contrary to Biblical principles and the Constitution and Bye-Laws of Assemblies of God Nigeria.

The Executive Committee of the church also ordered him to hand over all Assemblies of God properties in his possession.

Following Okoroafor’s sack, the church has empowered Rev Ejikeme EJim to take over as Acting General Superintendent.
