If truly you people are praying to gad what is special about language being used.

They're only trying to recognise their branch office in africa.next year they fit use Yoruba .
Yorubas have moved beyond serving a Jewish God as dictated by Rome or London. They have founded the best known indigenous Christian denominations in Africa for over 100 years now. Haven't you heard of Celestial Church, CAC, Cherubim and Seraphim Church, Deeper Life, Synagogue Church, Winner's Church, Redeemed Church, Mountain of Fire etc?
Yoruba people when they want to practice Christianity at all amongst other religions they do it their own way not the Roman or British way and they follow what the scriptures say.

Expecting Protests to start soon across the nation. Senselessness

I condemn this. I condemn it, I condemn it, I condemn it.

What happens to other tribes. This is pure racism against other tribes.

I urge the Pope to tender a public appology

This is not news because Igbos are the face and pillar of Christianity in Nigeria.


Without Igbos in Nigeria, Christian population in Nigeria will be less than 25%.
We still hv more Yoruba Christians than igbo Christians

Igbo is a universal language and Igbo prople are globe trotters.
I'm sure there are over 5milliom Igbos in different parts of the universe

Banza people in the first page are struggling so hard to mask their hatred and bitterness

One of the greatest organisations in the world shaping human history
Don't believe the hype. Jesus Christ alone has shaped human history. Jesus Christ is the Only Head of the Church. Christianity Starts and Ends with Jesus. Then God Appears on the scene since " For God so loved the world he gave His only Begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him shall not die "

...and we also have more Yoruba Muslims than Yoruba Christians you know. Yoruba population is around 150million (you know Yorubas are ubiquitous, they carry first and also carry last lol), that's why we pray they have courage to get their own independent Yoruba nation now that their son Tinubu is the President undecided




Yoruba lagba!

Yoruba ronu oh shocked

Wow! so all these proetestant churches you mentioned are what you call Yoruba way? ...and the ones owned by Igbo people are what?

Envy, bitterness and hatred just make you lots reason like ri tads

Igbos numbering about 50 milliin people are very unfortunate in sharing one country with Islamists who practice sharia criminal justice system.
I HAVE ALWAYS ASKED WHAT A PEOPLE SO BRILLIANT DID THAT BROUGHT US INTO THIS MESS CALLED NIGERIA AS DIVINE PUNISHMENT.

This is not new... They may choose to adopt other languages too...

Yarimo would wish it was Yoruba language that the Catholic adopted .

Igbo is the greatest tribe in Nigeria
Re: Vatican Adopt Igbo Language During Christmas Mass With The Pope by lagonovo: 6:15pm On Dec 25, 2025
Awesome. We Yorubas love our Ibo brothers & sisters, and when they are honored we are honored cool .

Did you listen to yourself ?

Your population in Nigeria is approximately 40 million and alf of your population is Muslim already, making it 20 million….

How can you compare yourself that are religiously divided to Igbos who are monolithic religiously ?

It's understandable. Wikipedia stats show that 70% of Nigerian Catholics are Igbos. It should be more than that. The church is very popular among Igbos.
Not up to 70% percent, my brother. sad

Maybe 50 or 45%.

The Idomas, Tivs and particularly the Esan Pple of Edo central have a Huge Catholic population. smiley

We're u the census chairman who declared Yoruba population is 40m. Bring ur data let's see. Besides how many ibos are practicing Christians. Most ibo men dont go to church again compared to many practicing Yoruba Christians

Stop making this argument. You are comparing tribes that cannot fill up one state with those who filled up an entire region and still have significant numbers in the South South. In fact, you will rarely see any Catholic parish in Nigeria without Igbo people.

Yoruba had been used in the past during prayer of the faithful even Cardinal Arinze was very active in the church. Take your politics out of the church.
