SACRILEGE AT THE ALTAR: Uproar in Enugu Cathedral as SSG Defends Governor Mbah's Failed 180-Day Water Promise, Prompting Demands for Canonical Sanctions Against the Bishop
A heavy wave of murmuring, visible embarrassment, and canonical outrage swept through the Cathedral Church of the Good Shepherd in Enugu during a recent service. Worshipers, including high-ranking knights and ladies of the diocese, reacted with open disgust when the Secretary to the Enugu State Government (SSG)—who also holds a knighthood in the diocese—mounted the sacred lectern to vigorously defend Governor Peter Mbah’s unfulfilled 180-day pipe-borne water mandate. Angered by the weaponization of the sanctuary for political image-cleansing amidst ongoing regional hardship, members of the laity are now demanding that the SSG be stripped of his knighthood. Concurrently, a formal petition is being prepared for the Primate of All Nigeria, urging immediate disciplinary action against the Bishop of Enugu for violating the Constitution and Canons of the Church of Nigeria by converting a holy altar into a political campaign ground.
