What do you know about Opus Dei in Nigeria?

Guys, over ten post and no one know/no post.

Have you watched the movie, Da Vinci Code; It's got a book too.

The Opus Dei are supposed to be holders of the "secret of life". I met a couple on Campus back then and gosh their attitude radiates that of someone with the secret of life.

Their locations are "secret"/unassuming and I know they certainly exist in Nigeria.

Yea, but we don't know - especially as their locations are "secret"/unassuming.

I would really be interested in what can be shared, at least you knew that much already!

As I earlier mentioned I met a few, also seen the movie the Da Vinci Code and book; and all these sources give only a small insight of the whole deal, therefore I want to know if anyone knows or has experiences in Nigeria.

As to their secrecy, I know generally key activities are on/around campuses world-wide and it's speculated some of the other members are influential people in the society of their respective countries.

No one has any Knowledge about Opus Dei in Nigeria?

@heyma,

Well, I really don't know. From the saved links in my fav folder, these are what I could find:

I have the hunch that you might already have come across all these links. All these same, I have no firsthand experience about the Opus Dei presence in Nigeria.

Cheers.

Theres nothing "Secret" about Opus Dei.

Lets Stop All This Da Vinci Conspiracy Theory Stuff.

Its Fiction. Opus Dei Is Just Another Christian Confraternity. Thats All.

Opus Dei is respnsible for establishing Lagos Business School.

I-man:

Dude, sounds interesting. You know, fiction is more like opposite or reality right. You mean these guys don't have anything they see in this life that we/some/others don't.

So I-man do you know their locations in nigeria? apart form where your brother is. Which location is your brother; Should be on/around a campus right?

Sure,they see dead people. Sorry to dissapoint you but there is nothing special about them.

I know there is an Opus Dei centre that was just off my Campus

I-man:

right.

which campus was that if I may ask.

heyma:

right.

If you come out of UNEC in Enugu,cross over the road,you will find Opus Dei

Interesting one

There is nothing wrong with Opus Dei! Stop all this rumours, try and get facts about stuff before jumping into bad conclusions. Da vinci code is a movie and is acted based on research from which conclusions was made, this guys are out to make money and gain popularity, and we should not encourage religious rumours and lies, opus dei is everywhere and there are not secretive, if they are, the last place they will be will be on campuses, is a church unit, and if you feel they are devils, aproach them and ask them to give thier lives to Christ and you will be doing a lot of good than just speculating and giving yourself headache.

Imagine a christain going to a mosque on friday and saying that all what christains do are all false and that christ did not die, and rise after 3 days and all we do is a waste of time. the muslims will surely embrace him and publish books based on his/her story and make it public and at the same time, he will be rewarded with a free trip to mecca every year and dine and wine with the king of saudi, and much more.

So lets be careful what we say and write because no one was born bad, we are all creatures of God, and God loves us equally, nobody is superior, lets love one another and be understanding, irrespective of religious affiliations.

When we were born we did not know, we were only told how, and up to the age of 4 we are not aware of our ourselves and surroundings, when and how we would die we do not know, but we are always keen to judge and condemn others, forgeting that we are all human beings, capable of making mistakes.

Let us be more understanding, bearing in mind that we are all inmates in this world, were all the inmates are on death row, and everyday we wake up alive, means we are a step closer to our graves.

were all the inmates are on death row, and everyday we wake up alive, means we are a step closer to our graves.

sorry, but i have to say i do not agree with this.


Peace!

Hmmm? Everyone in prison necessarily is on death row??

There's NOTHING secret about Opus Dei. Information abound on it on the Internet.

You may also wish to visit any of their centers here in Nigeria and see how they can benefit you.

I have personally encountered them and I can tell you from personal expeirience that it is just wonderful being/doing Opus Dei.
You can me on 08039489046 and I can take/direct you to any center close to you.

If you are in LBS lagos, you can ask Prof. Doyin Salami or Pat Utomi dem be members

Experienced their gathering for the first time... Honestly, it's harmless. On the contrary, it forms one to be like Christ in action and thought. Staying holy even at workplaces and wherever. Opus dei is God's work and God's work is love, care, sharing, trusting, etc
