Police hold peace meeting over Anglican Church crisis in Anambra
Police in Anambra State have held a peace meeting over the leadership crisis at St Faith Anglican Church in Awka. The session gathered the parties involved in the dispute, which has divided the church's leadership and unsettled its congregation. Officers urged everyone present to pursue a resolution through the church's own hierarchy rather than through confrontation. The police intervention signals worry that the conflict could spill into public disorder if left to fester. St Faith is one of the prominent Anglican churches in Awka, the Anambra State capital. Disputes over control of parishes in Nigeria can freeze worship and push members into rival camps. No binding outcome was announced after the meeting. Further talks are expected if the factions cannot agree on a way forward.
