He implored Dioceses to harness skills of health professionals in the church and train health professionals in the production of pharmaceuticals as well as set up research laboratories. He added that health, as a proven medical outreach, is a powerful tool and support for missions and evangelism. “Even though the Court Order to suspend Trustees is to be obtained ‘upon the hearing of the petition,’ it ought to have been categorically stated in the Act that the Commission or a minority of members cannot exercise the power unilaterally through an ex parte Court Order.
“We need to have a proactive national Church engagement and response on socio-political issues especially those that affect the Church of God in Nigeria like the CAMA law. We, therefore, constitute the Church of Nigeria Socio-political Interface Team. They will help us articulate our position and response as a Church during public hearings and key socio-political issues. The team shall represent Church of Nigeria on public socio-political issues that are of interest to the Church.
