Methodist church ordains first Female Bishop

The Methodist Church of Nigeria has ordained Right Reverend Nkechi Nwosu as its first female bishop in Nigeria.

Nwosu was ordained on Sunday at the Christ Methodist Cathedral Church North Central as the Bishop of Jos by the Archbishop of Kaduna, the Most Reverend Joseph Nnonah

The service is to formally give effect to the decision of the 2022 biennial Conference where Nwosu was elected as the Bishop of Jos.

Nwosu, who in her remark noted that God made all humans equal, urged Nigerians to always seek the face of God.

Speaking about the next general election, Nwosu said, “We must go out there and agree with God, do what God said we should do. By so doing, God will use us for anybody he will put on that seat to restore Nigeria to a place of pride in Africa and the world.”
