A high ranking member of the Church who spoke under anonymity revealed to FIJ that the Church's prelate, HME Elder Bob-Manuel, instituted an disciplinary committee when the Church heard about the FIJ's report on social media to ascertain the gravity of the allegations made against the prophets.


FIJ mentioned that its source reported that " panel found the prophets (Prophet Madu Chiboka, Dike and Prince Johnson) guilty and consequently demoted and suspended them from the Church, and that the verdict was communicated to Church members on Tuesday via the Church’s social media platform."
