Change Of Leadership In TAC: Pastor Uyeh Retires, Ogunibe Takes Over

OpenLife Nigeria reports that in a momentous announcement during the Sunday service of the Lagos Area 92 Annual Convention at Ebute-Metta, Pastor (Dr.) Samuel Gabriel O. Uyeh JP, the esteemed Territorial Chairman of the Lagos, Western, and Northern Areas (LAWMNA) Territory of The Apostolic Church Nigeria, formally unveiled his designated successor with his vice and others.

This significant development marks a key step in the planned leadership transition within the territory, amid Pastor Uyeh’s impending retirement scheduled for July 2026, as previously affirmed by LAWMNA councils and the church’s constitutional provisions.

Pastor M. O. Ogunibe, who has long served with distinction as the LAWMNA Territorial Administrative Secretary, has been named the incoming Territorial Chairman. The revelation, delivered in the context of the ongoing annual convention, underscores a seamless and orderly succession process rooted in the church’s established governance and spiritual heritage.

Further details regarding the formalities, timeline, and accompanying ceremonies are anticipated shortly from official church sources. This transition is poised to usher in a new chapter for the vibrant LAWMNA Territory, which encompasses significant portions of the church’s operations in Nigeria.

The Apostolic Church Nigeria community and observers alike await additional announcements as this historic handover process unfolds.
