Superior Evangelist Samson Banjo, who spoke for the board, emphasized that Justice A.O. Asenuga proclaimed that it was illegal for anyone to claim the title of the 'Pastor' and Head of the Church until an adjustments is made in the constitution of the church in regards to the appointment of a pastor.
The oldest member of the BOT said:
“The summary of the decision is that the church does not have an accredited pastor for the time being. Any claim by any person, including the self-proclamation of Senior Evangelist ‘Tosho Oshoffa, to the leadership of the church is fake and a figment of his imagination. It is an exercise that carries a grave risk of contempt of court.
“The essence of the court’s decision is that the church needs to rewrite its constitution. Work has commenced on this to find a lasting solution to this crisis. The interim draft has received attention, and a final draft is underway.”
He therefore said that the church authorities find it shocking that some individuals were proclaiming themselves as the ordained leader of the church against the ruling of the court.
