Anglican
Church denies Evans, says “we don’t know him”
The Bishop
of Lagos West, Anglican Diocese, Revd James Odedeji, on Friday, refuted claims
by the notorious kidnapper, Chukwudumeje Onwuamadike, a.k.a. Evans of
being a
member and a philanthropist of high repute in the Anglican family.
Odedeji made
the clarification while reacting to claims by Evans that he(Evans) had
sponsored indigent students, given money to widows as well as donated to the
renovation of the Anglican church building.
Speaking to
an online platform through Ven. Paul Adeyemi, Odedeji said: “We have verified
it, and we are very certain that Evans is not a member of any elements of our
church. We don’t know him and we have no affiliation with his person.
“All that he
his saying about paying school fees for indigent students, helping widows and
donating hugely to renovations of our church are pure lies. Please ignore the
false information, it is only meant to mislead the public.”.
Asked if
Evans had probably been one of the anonymous philanthropists in the church,
Odedeji replied ‘We know all our members, he is not one of us and he has never
been part of us.”
