Anglican Church Of Nigeria Bans Politicians From Podium After FCT Minister Wike’s Controversial Comments
The Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communion) has banned politicians and government officials from speaking on church podiums during services and warned against publicly praising them, in a move to preserve the sanctity of worship and prevent political influence within the Church.
This decision follows controversial remarks by FCT Minister Nyesom Wike, who used the pulpit at a thanksgiving service to make political statements, sparking public backlash.
In a memo signed by Primate Henry Ndukuba, the Church emphasized its neutrality and commitment to avoiding political partisanship, stating that the lectern is reserved solely for reading God’s Word. Politicians are still welcome to attend services, but church leaders must avoid any actions or words that suggest political bias.
