The government has stressed that it will not hesitate to defer the Annual Methodist Church Conference indefinitely if the security forces suspect any motive to cause instability.

Permanent Secretary for Information, Lt Colonel Neumi Leweni confirms that Reverend Manasa Lasaro from the Methodist Church is under police investigation for a proposal he made to the church hierarchy.

Lt Colonel Leweni said the proposal appears to be against the law and against the government, and if this type of matters will be discussed in the conference then no permit will be granted.
