The leadership of the United Methodist Church, UMC, in Nigeria has called on the international Christian community and other stakeholders to intervene in the ongoing fracas between them and the breakaway faction of the church, the Global Methodist Church, GMC.

Reacting to the recent attack on the Bamyam Theological Seminary in Bambur, Karim-Lamido Local Government Area of Taraba State, UMC emphasized the need for justice, hence the urgent call for the international Christian community to wade in.

In a statement signed and made available to journalists in Jalingo on Wednesday by the church’s bishop, Ande I. Emmanuel, UMC in Nigeria vowed to resist any efforts to erase its presence from the country.
