YAOUNDÉ, Cameroon, August 11, 2017 (LifeSiteNews) -- Clergy in a Cameroon diocese were publicly accused of masterminding the assassination of their bishop during the bishop’s memorial service last week.
The current administrator of a diocese said during the homily that the bishop did not commit suicide, but was killed because he stood up against homosexuals in the Church and the priesthood.
“Shame to all those people in black suits and black spectacles always sitting in the front rows of the Church,” said Monsignor Joseph Akonga Essomba during the August 3 service for deceased Bishop Jean Marie Benoit Bala of Bafia, Cameroon.
“Shame to all those priests who have come here, pretending to sympathize. These are the people who killed our bishop, because he said ‘no’ to the homosexuality perpetrated by those priests,” said Akonga, as reported by Crux Now.
