The youth of the Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) have declared their support for Rev. Dr Annor Yeboah chairman and pastor of the church.

The National Youth leader Rev. Stephen Owusu Jackson made this known at a press briefing on Tuesday. Rev Stephen Jackson Owusu stated that, the youth found it very difficult to understand why the decision to interdict the acting chairman was not communicated to the members of the church first before the press.

He further stated that the youth find the interdiction very unusual and in appropriate in many ways. Rev Owusu Jackson said the youth of the church have lost confidence in the executive members who orchestrated the interdiction and therefore call on them to resign.

He advised the youth to refrain from any conduct likely to disturb the peace in the church. In a related story the interdicted General Secretary of the Christ Apostolic Church International Rev. Dr. Augustine Annor-Yeboah has stated that, he would continue to occupy his position as General Secretary and Acting Chairman of the Church until a proper interpretation of the church’s constitution is done.

Rev Annor Yeboah said on Peace fm on Tuesday that, he was elected to serve for a certain period as the General Secretary, until another round of election is held. He described his interdiction as improper, since the meeting by the Executive Council of the church, was held without his consent as acting chairman of the church board, which is contrary to the constitution.

He said, he was only informed of his interdiction, by pressmen who attended the press conference Monday in Accra, where the current General Secretary Rev. Michael Nimo made the announcement that, Rev. Annor Yeboah had been interdicted from the church from the church. According to Rev. Annor Yeboah, he will pursue the case, since most of the allegations levelled against him were baseless.
