STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Recruitment and appointment of new trustees
The management of the charity is the responsibility of the trustees who are appointed and co-opted under the terms of the trust deed.

Policies adopted for the Induction and Training of Board of Trustees.

The induction process for any newly appointed member of the trustees comprises of an initial meeting with the chairman and other trustees where the power and responsibilities of the trustees are also clearly explained.

Trustees are also registered for different training events, conferences and seminars, usually organized by the central office of the Redeemed Christian Church of God.

Booklets sent by the Charity Commission are also, always circulated to the trustees. This ensures strict compliance to relevant regulation.

Organisational structure & decision making
The Church has a spiritual leader in the person of Pastor Solomon Ogah, but the governing of the charity is entirely the responsibility of the Board of Trustees, and is independent and free from any external influence.

The Board of trustees meets regularly to manage the affairs of the Church.

However, some urgent matters that may need to be attended to after normal meeting are held could be done on phone.
