What are INC heads fighting about?

Corruption started in 2009

In a radio interview with DZMM, INC’s former administrative coordinator Joy Yuson, divulged that corruption inside the church started after the passing of Erano Manalo in 2009. After the death of INC’s former Executive minister, Erano’s son Eduardo assumed leadership of the church.

According to Yuson, he personally witnessed how INC asked for more funds for charity through Lingap sa Mamamayan. The socio-civic program only started during the leadership of Eduardo.

“Gagamitin daw sa mga biktima ng bagyo [pero] nung nangyari ang Yolanda, nanghingi pa sila ng panibagong pangkalahatan ng abuluyan sa buong Iglesia sa buong mundo. Nagbenta pa sila ng t-shirt. Nagbenta sila ng kung ano-anong bagay para umano itulong sa mga biktima…Saan napunta ang linggo-linggo naming abuluyan sa buong mundo?” Yuson asked.

(They said they will use the funds for victims of super typhoon Yolanda. They asked for new donations from the whole church around the world. They even sold shirts and other stuff to help victims. Where did our weekly donations go?)

Denying Allegations

Meanwhile, INC spokesperson Edwil Zabala dispelled allegations made by Yuson who was expelled from INC “because he abandoned the flock entrusted to him.” He challenged Yuson to show proof of his allegations of corruption inside INC and present his evidence before a court of law.

Zabala also divulged that Yuson is the best friend and classmate of Angel.

Moreover, Zabala disclosed that certain people who were not allowed to interfere with how INC is being run resented the present leadership of the church.

Founded in 1914 by Felix Manalo, INC will be celebrating its 101st anniversary on Monday, July 27.
