“The fight between a father and son will never be settled on social media” Catholic Priest advices as Fr Paul Obayi threatens to leave Catholic church over alleged oppression from Bishop Onah

Rev. Fr. Jude Okechukwu, a Catholic priest, has weighed in on the publicised dispute between Father Paul Obayi “Okunerere”, of Nsukka Diocese, and Bishop, Most Rev. Godfrey Onah. 

Recall that Okunerere said he is leaving the Catholic church “any moment from now” over alleged oppression from Bishop Onah. 

Reacting, Fr. Jude said on Facebook: “The fight ( if any) between a father and son has never and will never be settled on social media. Please your opinion is good but may not be correct.” 

He added: “Remember how we all felt during the saga of Fr Mbaka and Bishop VC Onaga. The two family members are now in peace. Remember the uproar of Fr Odey of Abakiliki Diocese.  The  reconciliation didn’t consider your opinion. 

“So many Catholic priests have had face-offs with their immediate authorities and have long settled, while  their followers remained hurting and divided in faith and devotion. Be guided! Be informed! Be vigilant!”
