dc.description.abstract | The Methodist Church of Nigeria is one of the Christian denominations in the country, with a rich history and a significant presence across various regions. However, as the church is growing in size and complexity, there is a pressing need for structural adjustments to streamline administrative processes and support the overall growth and development of the church. The formation of a diocese would include designating a different geographical region within the current church structure, appointing a bishop, and creating administrative and governance processes appropriate to the new diocese. This method would allow local leaders to make choices more quickly and effectively, adjust their policies to the particular demands of the region and promote active community engagement. The study adopted both the system structural conflict theory and system theory. System theory emphasizes the holistic view of systems, where the whole is more than the sum of its parts. The study adopts both historical and explanatory research design to investigate the creation of archdiocese for administrative efficiency and development in Methodist Church, Nigeria. Findings from the study revealed that organizational structure and leadership, local empowerment and ministry are some of the reasons why dioceses were created. Hence, the creation of dioceses in the Methodist Church in Nigeria has provided a robust organizational structure and efficient leadership framework. The study recommends that the Methodist Church in Nigeria should always consider the distance of the church and members before creating diocese in any region.
