==Functions and duties==
 
The functions and duties of the Church are enumerated in several laws. Because it has autocephaly from the Mother Church, it is able to exercise its powers independently. However, it remains in communion with that church and most rites practiced under one church are recognised by the other. It must develop and teach the doctrine of the Akronist religion in the Ibomian context, direct and control the worship of Akrona in the country, spread the message of Akrona in Iboma and beyond, maintain and provide links to the mother church in [[TarvarisTavaris]]. It must also administer religious rituals and festivals, oversee the construction and maintenence of religiously significant buildings and monuments and oversee the Clerical practice in the country.
 
==Structure==
The Defender of the Church, is the title that was bestowed onto the Queen Mujaji I of Iboma following the unification of its 12 tribes in 1600 because she placed the Church of Acronis in Iboma under her protection and stipulated that Akronism shall be the official religion. Her successors continue to fulfill this role. Thus, the Queen of Iboma has the power to appoint the High Priestess on the advice of the Holy Council.
