Kaduna Files Criminal Charges Against Anglican Bishop

Criminal charges have been filed by the Kaduna state government against Abiodun Ogunyemi, bishop of Zaria diocese, Anglican communion over “defamatory remarks” made against Nasir el-Rufai, the governor.

We learnt that the Bishop, Ogunyemi was arraigned before a chief magistrate’s court in Kaduna on charges bordering on criminal defamation, injurious falsehood and criminal intimidation.

Recall that the bishop had in a statement in November 2019 criticised the governor over the planned demolition of St George Cathedral in Zaria.

Ogunyemi had said the governor was being groomed to take over from President Muhammadu Buhari in 2023 but he would never be president.

It was learnt that the government has since rescinded on its plans to demolish the 110-year-old cathedral because of its historical value.

After several interrogations from the police, Ogunyemi was arraigned with the approval of the ministry of justice.

He pleaded not guilty and was granted bail.

A member of the Kaduna Synod and a canon of the cathedral church of St Michael Kaduna stood in as surety.

However, the director of public prosecutions who led the state legal team told the court that there were ongoing consultations which could lead to a peaceful resolution of the case.

John Omughele, counsel to Ogunyemi conceded to the submission of the prosecution.

The magistrate has adjourned the case to October 28, 2020, for continuation.
