Stop spreading misleading information: KTCF to Philem Rohan

Vehemently reacting over repeated alleged misleading information over the existence of Immanuel Meitei Fellowship Church, the Kangpokpi Town Churches Fellowship, or KTCF urged Philem Rohan Singh and Ebungo to stop once and for all spreading the unfounded and misleading information.

KTCF, the apex body of Churches in Kangpokpi town, and the Kangpokpi Town Committee had on September 26 audibly and collectively clarified that there is no such Church in the name of Immanuel Meitei Fellowship Church, ever existed in Kangpokpi Town, but, Philem Rohan and Ebungo repeatedly insisted that Immanuel Meitei Fellowship Church where Ebungo is the Pastor had been vandalized and turned into Kitchen.

Ebungo, whom the locals knew him popularly as a fish seller at I.T. Road bazar near LNC Hotel, who claimed himself to be a Pastor of Immanuel Meitei Fellowship Church at Shanti Veng, Ward No.17 in Kangpokpi town said that the Church is located at the campus of one L. Ebochou residence.

To make things clear once and for all, the KTCF members along with the Kangpokpi Youth Union went for a spot examination of the site and enquired if such a Church ever existed without the knowledge of the KTCF and the local bodies.

Speaking to the media, the Secretary of Kangpokpi Town Church Fellowship, Rev. Fr. Jangkhogin Chongloi said that as members of KTCF and KYU went for a spot examination, we found no such Church as claimed by Ebungo and Philem Rohan at the campus of L. Ebochou residence at Shanti veng and nobody in the vicinity also knew about it.

He said that the only structure we found is the residence of L. Ebochou and an extension of a room where he [Ebochou] used to teach and take tuition to children of the locality while clarifying that there is no such Church structure inside the campus as claimed by Philem Rohan and Ebungo.

He also said that there is no such Church recorded in the record book of Kangpokpi Town Church Fellowship since 1997.

The KTCF Secretary said that such a make-up and fake story on the part of the followers of Jesus Christ is not only unethical but spiritually wrong for the children of God.

Therefore, if Philem Rohan and Ebungo are a true Christian, they must abstain from such wrongdoing and make unfounded allegations with misleading information, he added.

He also said that the duo [Philem Rohan and Ebungo] must also know that such misleading information and false allegations will not only disturb their spiritual life but it could become a triggering factor for more misunderstanding in the already volatile situation among the two communities.

The KTCF also appealed to the general public not to be misled with the false and unfounded allegation.

It also fervently appealed to both Philem Rohan and Ebungo to stop spreading such unfounded and misleading information to the masses in future.
