Bishop Matthew Kukah of the Catholic Diocese
of Sokoto, on Sunday regretted the inequalities
between the public office holders in Nigeria and
the masses.
The Bishop, who spoke at the Holy Ghost
Cathedral Enugu in a thanksgiving mass to mark
the re-wedding of old Anambra State Governor,
Senator Jim Nwobodo and his wife in the
Catholic church, attributed the inequality to
corruption among public office holders.
He added that this had resulted in persistent
crisis and youth restiveness in the nation.
Bishop Kukah called on Igbos as a people with a
common language and culture to be united and
ensure security and peace in the area to
actualize socio-economic development,
regretting that Nigeria was today a country that
is more divided.
He observed that life did not depend only on
power and money, enjoining Christians
irrespective of their denominations to close
ranks and strive towards evangelism which is
the common goal.
Kukah, who gave a homily during the holy mass,
which also coincided with the service to mark
the 2016 Armed Forces Remembrance /Appeal
Fund Week warned the catholic faithful not to be
over excited by feeling that they had gained
where the Anglicans lost, adding that there is
no gain and loss in the matter.
He appealed to all Christians to close ranks and
endeavour to achieve success in evangelism
which is the most important Christian goal.
Bishop Kukah Commended the Anglican Church
for nurturing Chief Jim Nwobodo from birth till
the time he joined Catholic church.
He added that Senator Nwobodo’s entry into the
Catholic church is a home coming, recalling that
all Christian churches pulled out from Catholic
church, because of the protest from the then
Rev. Fr. Martin Luther.
He warned that people should not judge others
but allow judgement for God.
The bishop expressed happiness that since the
enthronement of Pope Francis and the
emergence of his “down to earth simplicity and
freshness”, the Catholic church had continued
to grow.
In a remark, Senator Nwobodo noted that his
entry into the Catholic church as a home coming
which God has destined.
According to him, since he embraced Catholic
church, things have started turning around
positively for him and his family.
Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State, who
was the sponsor of the wedding with his wife
Monica, took the first reading in the church
service attended by top government officials,
friends and relations of the celebrant, including
Bishop emeritus of Enugu Catholic Diocese,
Most. Rev. Dr. Anthony Gbuji, and the Bishop of
the Diocese, Most Rev. Callistus Onaga.
