A worker with Inner City Mission for Children (ICM4C), under the Christ Embassy Church canopy, Mrs. Brenda Nwanguma,is threatening to drag the head pastor Pastor Kenechukwu Kanu aka Kaycee to court.
New Telegraph reports that Nwanguma is demanding justice in respect of alleged work place harassment, intimidation, blackmail and libel. Nwanguma’s lawyer, Samuel Akpologun, has already petitioned the church.
She is threatening to take the church and Pastor Kaycee to court if nothing was done to address and back. Earlier this year, Nwanguma, a mother of three, had accused Pastor Kaycee of sexually harassing and victimizing her.

While Nwanguma accused Kaycee, a father of two, of sexual harassment, Kaycee countered by calling her a, “loose woman who has slept with at least two to three men here. Her husband doesn’t know her. He should go and put his house in order. I’m a man of the cloth. There’re certain things I shouldn’t say.”
Nwanguma had further accused Kaycee of having a penchant for sexually harassing and even succeeding in sleeping with women in the organization. She noted that it was because she rebuffed Kaycee’s sexual advances that led to her being victimized.
Part of Akpologun’s petition states: “It is our brief that on April 3, 2017, our client, Brenda Nwanguma, who is a staff in your organisation, made a complaint to the Head of Administration of the said mission, Pastor Ifeoma Chiemeka, through electronic mail on the following; sexual harassment.
She said that Pastor Kaycee, had been sexually harassing our client by making demands to have canal knowledge of her in return for facilitating her transfer from a department with an oppressive boss, to another department.”
The lawyer further stated that because his client turned down Kaycee’s sexual advances, the cleric resorted to victimizing her by posting and transferring her twice, within the space of a month."
She has decided to take the matter to court after endlessly waiting to hear from the committee constituted by the church to look into the allegations.
