Rev Canon LumenCristi Eboh, an Anglican Priest has announced his resignation from the Anglican Communion at a press conference in Awka, Anambra State, today, March 7, 2022.
Reverend Eboh in his statement accused some forces in the church of being behind the decision of his wife to leave him, as they lodged her at an undisclosed place.
He specifically accused his Diocesan Bishop of witch-hunt, land grabbing, and an attempt to arm-twist him into making him a member of the board of God in Action Adoration Ministry, a ministry he founded privately.

He posited in his Press Conference that the Bishop insisted that the registered trustees of his personal ministry be altered to include the bishop and his wife, a request he did not feel comfortable with as God did not reveal the bishop to him as a vessel in the ministry.
The Reverend who doubles as a radio and television evangelist alleged that his refusal to include the bishop as trustee as demanded and to hand over landed property of his personal ministry to him made the Bishop loathe him.
He gave harassment, instigation, and conspiracy by the diocesan authorities of the Anglican Diocese as reasons for his resignation.
In his words:
"As I speak, my wife is living differently in an apartment paid for by someone who knows that she is someone’s wife.
"I am only a priest permitted by my communion to enter the sacred institution of marriage. As a married man, I had very private moments with my wife and we shared endearing words just like every young couple. With the crash of my marriage, I have sought to reorder my life, but those fighting me have even sent young women here in an attempt to use prospects of marriage to malign my character and reputation."
