Christian Leaders Weigh Options on CAMA - THISDAYLIVE

The Christian Association of Nigeria has commenced consultations with Christian leaders to determine the next action to take in order to get the federal government to reverse the provision of new Companies and Allied Matters Act , 2020 signed into law by President Muhammadu Buhari recently, which empowers the federal government to appoint acting trustees for non-profit and non-governmental organisations in the event of a complaint of misconduct.

“We don’t want to put all our eggs in one basket; we just issued a statement rejecting the CAMA law. CAN has started consultations with Christian leaders on what our next move will be,” he said. “The law, to say the least, is unacceptable, ungodly, reprehensible and an ill-wind that blows no one any good. It is a time bomb waiting to explode,” it added.

“The satanic section of the controversial and ungodly law is Section 839 &, which empowers the commission to suspend trustees of an association and appoint the interim managers to manage the affairs of the association for some given reasons. CAN wondered how a non-Christian head of government ministry could be empowered to determine the running of the church as envisaged by the law.

“If you cannot give us good amenities of life, we would not allow you to take away our liberty to worship our maker. Kalu, however, berated the concerned parties for not airing their views during the public hearing stage of the bill.

Oyedepo’s Unholy Anger Over CAMA And Nigeria’s Karma, By Fredrick Nwabufo | Sahara ReportersBishop David Oyedepo, the redoubtable preacher, took umbrage against the government over a section of the recently signed Companies and Allied Matters Act (CAMA) which warrants the Corporate Affairs Commission to suspend the trustees of an association or a religious body and appoint an interim manager or managers to coordinate its affairs where it reasonably believes that there has been any misconduct or mismanagement, or where the affairs of the association are being run fraudulently or where it is necessary or desirable for the purpose of public interest. By implication, the law regulates religious and charity organisations.
