The Primate of Church of Nigeria, Anglican Communion, Most Rev. Nicholas Okoh, has lamented that some Anglican priests in the country are yielding to gay pressure.

He warned that the church would not hesitate to remove such priests from the priesthood, if discovered.

Okoh made this remark during the devotion of “Lady Alice Chiebonam Ozumba Ultra-modern Maternity Complex,” Iyienu Mission Hospital, in Ogidi, Anambra State.

He lamented what he termed

the subtle compromisers by some priests in the church, warning them to retrace their steps or risk being exposed.

He added,

People are lobbying us to abandon our faith and theology to embrace their false teaching. Unfortunately, some of our priests are already bowing to the pressure.

If your priest is practising evil or keeping an evil alliance, and you know, raise your hand, be a whistle-blower so they won’t undermine our church. If they do, it will be difficult to rescue.

If we all become homosexuals; who will give birth to who? If it’s now man to man, there won’t be any Inyienu maternity. God who created this world did it the excellent way, let no man tamper with it.
