It was a cheering news some days ago in the Catholic Church, especially the Awka Diocese when the announcement was made that Bishop Peter Okpaleke, who was rejected by the Ahiara Diocese in Mbaise, Imo State, was named the Bishop of the new Diocese of Ekwulobia in Anambra State, Ekwulobia Diocese and was subsequently made a Cardinal by the POPE.


To many Catholics, it was a big relief for the amiable Bishop Okpaleke who, in spite of what he passed through in Ahiara Diocese, remained focused in the service of God for the past eight years.

Okpaleke, who hails from Amesi in Aguata local government area of Anambra State, was to succeed the late Bishop Anthony Chikwe in Ahiara, but the people of Mbaise insisted on having an indigene as their local government. For five years, Bishop Okpaleke never stepped foot on his Cathedral and only remained Bishop of the Diocese in name.

What do u expect from Imo(igbo) people, his name is opaleke after all, I pity gullible yorubas, guess the name opaleke confused them

Surely,they gathered against him, but God elevated him beyond this shores.
Peter Obi, God is sending a direct message to you. 2023 it is!

Glory to Jesus

So Imo lost

To further fulfill the word of the gospel, the stone the builders rejected will become the corner stone.


You could imagine how he felt when he got the rejection, not in a community, not in a school but in a church.

Guys, let's learn one thing. Despite the rejection, he recollected and moved forward. Had it been he over reacted, he wouldn't have been a Cardinal today.
Long Live Cardinal Peter
Long Live the one, holy Apostolic Church

I wonder what's the intentions of the mod that moved this topic to the front page with such destructive headline...

tamdun:

Same you is trying to cause division between Ijaw and Yoruuba in ondo state, same you is always trying to make Igbo feel hated, same you is always trying to make Yoruba feel hated. Nairaland should be optimized to allow only Nigerians. All this Ghanaians and south Africans ehnnn, they just want us to be fighting, just for watching sake.

Meanwhile, to the post

With God, anything is possible.



Meanwhile, You have an option to vote a new person, who is not part of the team that brought us to where we are today.

2014, many PDP members joined APC, together with many other small parties.

So, what do you expect.

Now, same PDP now have NNPP and LP branches.
They are all ONE people.


They held meeting in London last week to plan how to destroy Nigeria completely.

Vote Accordingly, Nigerians be wise!!!!

Congratulations to him

Imagine

JESUS IS LORD FOREVER AND EVER

God bless Bishop Okpaleke.
Okpaleke is a blessing.


Prior to being appointed as cardinal,
TheCable had reported how Okpaleke resigned as bishop from the Ahiara diocese in Imo state after being rejected because he was not an indigene.

Things dey happen oooo...

We are so happy and Proud of Cardinal Okpaleke.God is good.

But na true na... Igbos supporting igbos in the mud...
Anuofia people

Na Mbaise people wey reject am. Dem dey behave like Ngwa people with their 'indigenous mentality '.

Funnily enough, the same diocese doesn't have a bishop up till now

Mbaise Catholics really embarrassed the entire Nigerian Catholic community.

One wonders what they are learning in that diocese.

Congratulations, Cardinal Okpaleke!

Rome cartels things.

Rejected stone in potopoto land became chief corner of the house

tamdun:
Hope the gullible yoruba are reading this, these people will always fight for their own, they do not care if u are a Christian or not,see how dey pushed opaleke out despite being a fellow Christian, they pushed him out just because he's a yoruba man

He is not a Yoruba he is also Igbo like them but they rejected him because he was not from their local government, so they would do worst if he was a Yoruba
