Killed in Church by A Struggle Ordained by God: The End of Chief Itoh Stephen Esoh
Despite the Chief's political affiliations, it is said he was a soft-spoken and pragmatic man, much loved within his family and the community of Ekondo-Titi. It is therefore feared that the repercussions of his murder might be far-reaching. Sadly enough, should this murder create a rift within the community, the only person who will benefit from it is Biya and his regime. Hence, by going into the 'house of God' taking out a Chief and killing him, the 'God-ordained struggle' might have just shot itself in the foot.

Maybe, with the storms hitting the Catholic Church, it might be time the institution stands up to its creed of being the voice of the voiceless and challenge the barbaric regime of Biya and its intransigence in resolving the current crisis.

Though this is not to say, that the Church can be immune from political interventions, given that it is on politics that the foundations of Christianity were laid.
