Who is Mlibo Ngewu?
Mlibo Mteteleli Ngewu is the current Bishop of Umzimvubu a diocese in the Anglican Church of Southern Africa. Previously an archdeacon he was appointed in 2003 to succeed the inaugural bishop, Geoffrey Francis Davies. He is a close relative of the late Dean of Pretoria, Provincial Trustee and former Rector of the College of the Transfiguration, The Reverend Professor Lubabalo Livingstone Ngewu.
The seven years of his episcopate have been marked with controversy. Members of his estranged clergy, who refer to themselves as the Concerned Group, have charged him with allegations of authoritarian leadership, which has caused much resentment and embarrassment. As of 19 August 2011, some two thirds of the clergy in his diocese have written to the Archbishop of Cape Town requesting him to intervene. In consequence, he was under investigation on various charges under Canon Law. The allegations which were under investigation included simony, nepotism, embezzlement, fraud and sexual harassment. Subsequently, Ngewu was exonerated of the charges by a Provincial task force convened by the Anglican Church of Southern Africa. The Archbishop mandated a pastoral team to undertake a visit in order to meet with the with the presenters, the Bishop and any others concerned in the matters raised, and to seek to resolve the issues concerned through pastoral ministration, which included the Dean of the Province and Bishop of Natal, The Right Reverend Rubin Phillip.
