Archbishop Alexander Chibuzo Ibezim, the Bishop of the Anglican Diocese of Awka, has withdrawn his legal suit against the Primate of the Church of Nigeria, Most Rev. Henry C. Ndukuba, and the Dean of the Church, Most Rev. Blessing Enyindah. The decision to withdraw the suit was communicated in a Notice of Discontinuance/Withdrawal of Suit filed at the High Court of Anambra State, Awka Judicial Division.
The withdrawal was made to facilitate an amicable out-of-court settlement. The suit was originally instituted by Ibezim against Ndukuba and Enyindah, challenging the constitution of a visitation team, which Ibezim described as illegally constituted. The withdrawal of the suit suggests a possible shift towards resolving the dispute through dialogue rather than continued litigation.
However, the notice did not disclose the terms of any proposed settlement or indicate whether an agreement had already been reached by the parties.
