The travails of Bible Reigners Pastor, Apostle Akan Weeks is far from over.
Information filtering in have it that the influential religious leader is currently battling growing campaign to be prosecuted along with handlers of his collapsed church.
Bible Reigners undergoing construction church on Saturday December 10 2016 collapsed while filled to the brim.
The day was the ordination of Apsotle Akan Weeks as a Bishop at the place of worship situated in Uyo.
And virtually all the who is who in Akwa Ibom state turned up for the event – including state Governor, Udom Emmanuel who narrowly escaped arrest.
Governor Udom arrived the ordination ceremony just 30 minutes before the tragic occurrence.
The roof of the church caved in and the iron roofing and beams rained down on guest and worshippers.
A high number of deaths were reportedly recorded with countless sustaining injuries.

The public outcry over the development had put handlers of the ongoing construction work at the receiving end.

But emerging campaign claim Apostle Akpan Weeks is as culpable as those he employed.
Questions are being raised over why he decided to hold such a major event in an undergoing construction building.
It is being spread about town his urgency to get the work down in time for his scuttled ordination is as indicting as construction handlers that refused to abide by the principle of a good job.
Societynowng,com gathered the campaign against the Apostle who sustained minimal injury compared to those who lost their lives, suffered permanent injury and suffering the pains of fractured limbs is growing by the day.
This agitation is further fuelled trending interview reportedly given on the subject by another recognised religious leader Bishop Emma Isong.
The General Overseer of the Christian Central Chapel International reported put the blame for the collapse of the Bible Reigners Church and its consequence at the feet of Apostle Weeks.
‘’He was too much in a hurry to become Bishop’’ was the theme of Bishop Isong’s verdict.

Apostle Weeks backers claim those afraid of his increasing successes are just attempting to bring him down by leveraging on what is ‘’a very a heart breaking situation’’ to achieve their aim.
However before the campaign to prosecute him got wind, the man at the centre of the storm – Apostle Weeks had pleaded with all not to crucify him at this period.
In call in to radio station planet 101.1 F.M Uyo Apostle Weeks specifically pleaded “Please, this is not the time to crucify me, I’m still your brother. Reigners Church family, I’m still your Pastor. The enthronement was cancelled completely and i am not interested. Please let us rise and pray. I really sympathise with the departed soul. Once, I’m out of my hospital bed, I will come on air and we will pray together. I was also seriously injured. One of my legs was seriously damage’’
Weeks was forced to make the move when news made the rounds he was unhurt and went ahead with his ordination as a Bishop at another location.
The campaign to have him prosecuted kick started when the state government ordered the arrest of the contractors – totally absolving the embattled Apostle from any blame.
