On the second day of March 2024, an event occurred within Celestial Church of Christ that will be forever etched in our history book when a senior clergy entrusted with the responsibilities of upholding the fundamental principles of the Church, made a decision that not only violated the doctrinal practices of the Church but also disrupted a Sunday Glorious Service by attempting to impose a Shepherd against the wishes of the parishioners of a 55 years old CCC Harton Street National Headquarters in London, UK.
The actions of M/S/E Fastusi on that day harkened back to a time when discipline was rigorously enforced within the Church, reminiscent of the era of Late Rev AA Bada. However, the current state of affairs within the Church authority has weakened the power of constituted authority in all aspects.
A viral video captured the moment when M/S/E Fastusi entered the inner altar and instructed the service conductor to pause for the announcement of a Pastor’s letter. He then went on to invite the London Police to officially read the Pastor’s letter, all while comfortably seated inside the altar, observing as a Police officer delivered the message with his shoe inside the Parish. This unprecedented action raises concerns about the sanctity of the Church and the authority vested in its leadership.

If a Police officer can read a Pastor’s letter within a Church in London, what does this mean for the sanctity of the Church, then we should expect traditionalist to read Pastor letter in Nigeria. The events of that day serve as a stark reminder of the importance of upholding the values and teach of Celestial Church of Christ, both in London and beyond.
At the CCC Harton Street Parish in London, there has been a recent incident that has caused quite a stir. The Taskforce Chairman of the Church, V/S/E Adjovi has chosen to remain silent on the matter at hand. When the concerned shepherds/ church workers group which later transcend to CCC UK/NI Diocese raised observations against the abuse of doctrinal practice been witnessed in UK, V/S/E Adjovi released a video clip pledging his allegiance to M/S/E Fastusi leadership, despite evidence presented to the Church.

Rather than immediately launching an investigation into the inappropriate actions of M/S/E Fastusi at CCC Harton Street National Headquarters in London, V/S/E Adjovi has focused his attention on Prophet Sunday Joseph, also known as Sunday Super. He demanded a public apology from Sunday Super, even after Sunday Super humbly prostrated himself before him.
V/S/E Adjovi, it is important to consider constructive criticism as part of your duty and avoid making one-sided judgments. If you are unable to handle criticism, it may be best to consider resigning from your position as Taskforce Chairman of a 76-year-old Church. Threatening members of the Church who express their concerns about your performance is not the appropriate course of action.
Similarly, the Church Spokesman, Sup. Evang. Kayode Ajala who advocated for the minority amidst the overwhelming voice of the majority has recently gone into exile. He served as the spokesperson for M/S/E Fastusi, avoiding to address various instances of doctrinal abuse and mismanagement within the UK Diocese. This decision came after his superior brought a Glorious Service to a halt by involving the London Police to act against the church guidelines.
