One Of The Churches Magumba Used
A vicar behind dozens of fake marriages has been jailed and told by the church he has brought scandal to the church.

Reverend John Magumba has recorded weddings and given out marriage certificates so illigal immigrants could stay in the UK. 

He conducted 28 'sham' marriages before he was caught, he even headed a selection of Church of England committee meetings aimed at stamping out the problem.

Today he was jailed for 2.5 years for conducting the illegal weddings from two churches in Rochdale.

Members of the CoE are appalled by his actions and are in outrage.
