Chaos unfolds at St. Charles Borromeo Parish, Odume Obosi, as an uproar engulfs the church grounds. Parishioners took action by locking up the premises, accusing the Catholic parish priest of allegedly selling a church-owned land for a whooping sum of N43 million and failing to remit the funds to the church's accounts.
In the early hours of Sunday, July 23rd, 2023, the infuriated parishioners barricade the church gate, ensuring that no mass was held on Sunday in protest of the purported misappropriation of parish funds.
Adding to the tension, the concerned parishioners displayed a warning notice, cautioning potential buyers to refrain from engaging in any transactions involving the church property under the management of the questionable priest.
It has been noted that the Reverend Father had been expressing concerns about a decline in income this year, citing personal needs to be met. However, the exact nature of these needs remains undisclosed to the Catholic authorities.
