It was indeed a day to be much remembered for the Catholic faithfuls of the Oblates of St. Joseph as the priestly ordination of seven Reverend fathers took central stage.

There was so much glitz and glamor in the air as friends and families gathered to celebrate.

Father Simon Uchechukwu Agubeze, one of the newly ordained could not contain his joy on such a memorable day, the fact that loved ones from far and near found time to share in his joy made it even more pleasing.

For the newly ordained priests, it is without doubt a day that won';;;t be forgotten for a long time to come.
