Anglican Church of Nigeria to Launch TV Channel

The Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communion) has announced that it will launch its own cable television channel, the Anglican Cable Network Nigeria (ACNN TV), in a few months. The Church revealed that plans are at an advanced stage. “The work on the studio is progressing steadily. We have made the first line of payment and the technical committee of experts has been inaugurated. “The new vision of the Church of Nigeria, revised in 2010 stated that to expand mission work media facilities – such as cable television, radio and print media – should be established and existing ones fully utilized,” said Revd. Canon Chukwuebuka Chukwuemeka of the Diocese of Amichi in Anambra State. The Church has already announced an opening for the role of General Manager for ACNN TV, and according to a Communication’s Director in the Church, Ven. Foluso Taiwo, “The vision is to reach the unreached. The main focus is salvation, and to deliver the undiluted Word of God.”
