It’s Harlotry To Jump From One Political Party To Another–Bishop

Anglican Bishop of Evo Diocese in Rivers State, Rt. Reverend Innocent Ordu, has described as political harlotry, the manner politicians jump from one political party to another in Nigeria.

This is as he berated Christians who engage in fanning embers of disunity in their various communities by getting involved in chieftaincy disputes.

Ordu spoke yesterday at the fifth Synod of the Diocese of Evo (Anglican Communion) held at the Saint Michael’s Anglican Church, Rumuomasi, Port Harcourt.
The bishop advised politicians to stay in one political party, build it and avoid jumping from one party to the other.

He said: “Stay in one place and build your political party. Stop jumping from one political party to another. I see these defections here and there as political harlotry.”
Ordu said it was wrong for a Christian who receives and professes Christ to be involved in chieftaincy tussles in their various communities.
He said: “Most of you are internationally connected and there are funds lying idle somewhere. You can help the church to get such funds to assist our schools.
You can’t be in the church taking communion and shouting Amen, yet you are entangled in chieftaincy crisis in your communities.”
