President Muhammadu Buhari, on Monday, commiserated with President, Catholic Bishops’ Conference of Nigeria and the entire Catholic Community over the demise of Most Rev. Dr Gregory Obinna Ochiagha, Bishop Emeritus, Catholic Diocese of Orlu, Imo State.
In a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, the President particularly sympathised with Catholics in Orlu Diocese where the late cleric served as pioneer bishop for about four years and endeared himself to his parishioners.
President Buhari noted that Bishop Ochiagha’s contributions to the spiritual growth of the Catholic faithful during his decades of service would not be forgotten.
He prayed that the Almighty God would console the grieving Catholic Community, and grant peaceful rest to the soul of the revered bishop.
