The Faculty of African Church and Politics (FACP) is a bold and visionary academic unit that addresses the intersection of faith, politics, governance, and civic responsibility in Africa. This faculty seeks to equip Christian leaders, clergy, and scholars to understand and influence political systems, public policy, democratic governance, and legal structures with the mind of Christ and the values of the Kingdom of God.
With the growing relevance of the Church in political discourse and national transformation across Africa, FACP provides a robust theological and socio-political foundation for responsible engagement, prophetic witness, ethical leadership, and nation-building.
This department explores the historical, theological, and contemporary roles of the Church in political life. It trains students to understand how the Church can act as a prophetic voice, a moral compass, and a transformative agent within political spaces. The curriculum includes case studies on African nations, models of Christian political participation, and principles of ethical influence.
This department focuses on moral and ethical foundations for Christian involvement in issues of justice, equality, and human rights. Rooted in biblical ethics and prophetic traditions, students are trained to confront injustice, advocate for the oppressed, and shape public life with moral courage and biblical conviction.
Here, students examine the structures, functions, and philosophies of government, public administration, and policymaking. They are trained to analyze and influence policy from a Christian worldview, promote integrity in public office, and lead reform initiatives for national and community development.
Though shared with other faculties, this department here focuses on internal governance of the Church and its strategic engagement with external systems of power and authority. It trains pastors, bishops, and administrators to lead churches responsibly, while also understanding legal compliance, ecclesiastical polity, and community leadership.
This department develops contextual theological frameworks that speak to African political realities—such as leadership, oppression, corruption, identity, and liberation. It draws from both biblical sources and African experiences to construct a theology that engages politics prophetically and redemptively.
This unique department examines the theology of the Church (ecclesiology) in relation to democratic ideals such as participation, accountability, freedom, and justice. It trains students to see the Church not just as a spiritual body, but as a contributor to national dialogue, civic culture, and democratic consolidation in Africa.
This department addresses the rights and responsibilities of Christians in diverse and often hostile political environments. It covers legal protections, human rights laws, religious liberty, and the Church’s role in defending persecuted believers and promoting freedom of conscience.
Students in this department explore the interaction of religious values, legal systems, and civic participation. Topics include constitutional law, legal advocacy, civil society movements, and the legal rights of churches and faith-based organizations. The aim is to produce informed Christian citizens and advocates.
Focusing on the intersection of theology, economics, and politics, this department trains students to understand how economic policies affect the Church and society. Topics include poverty reduction, stewardship of national resources, Church-state partnerships, and the economics of prophetic justice and development.
The Faculty of African Church and Politics stands as a prophetic academic platform for shaping the future of Africa through godly leadership, public theology, and justice-driven governance. It equips emerging leaders, theologians, public servants, and advocates to engage constructively and courageously in the transformation of African nations—guided by truth, faith, and justice.
