Ebenezer Akorede Okuyelu
Ebenezer Akorede Okuyelu was an Anglican bishop in Nigeria:[1] he was the Bishop of Osun North East.[2][3]
He was consecrated Bishop of Osun North East in April 2019 at St David's Anglican Cathedral Church, Ijomu, Akure, by the Primate of All Nigeria, Nicholas Okoh.
In 2022, PIJAlance Magazine, a foremost Nigeria's Community Investigative Journalism Organisation, published that Bishop Okuyelu engaged in carnal knowledge with a prostitute. Subsequently, the Organisation reported that the Bishop was suspended, however, PIJAlance's url was subjected to a shadow ban by Meta. It took a year later before the challenge was resolved as a result of the issue, the Organisation reported.
