Church Member Renounces Christianity Over Failure to Recognize Late Politician in Anambra

A church member, Jame Louis Okoy, renounced Christianity in a viral video at Nnewi Catholic Diocese in Anambra, Nigeria, expressing anger over the church's failure to acknowledge the late politician Ifeanyi Ubah's contributions. Ifeanyi Ubah, a former senator, passed away in July 2024.

The incident has sparked controversy and raised questions about the church's handling of Ubah's memory. Okoy insisted that Ubah played a crucial role in supporting the construction of the cathedral and deserved recognition.

Ubah was a prominent figure in Anambra politics and had recently defected to the Progress Congress party.
