Church of Nigeria Primate Congratulates Pope Leo on His Election
The Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communion) has joyfully extended its heartfelt congratulations to His Holiness, Pope Leo, on his historic election as the new head of the Roman Catholic Church.
In an official statement, the Most Rev’d Henry Ndukuba, Primate of the Church of Nigeria, expressed deep joy and solidarity:
“We rejoice with our brothers and sisters in the Roman Catholic Church on this historic moment. We pray that the Holy Spirit will grant Pope Leo wisdom, strength, and grace to lead the faithful in truth, love, and peace. May his papacy be marked by a renewed commitment to unity in the body of Christ and compassionate witness to a broken world.”
As a fellow Christian leader and believer, I also take this opportunity to express my personal joy and heartfelt congratulations to Pope Leo. His election signals a hopeful chapter in the spiritual life of millions around the world, and I am confident that under his leadership, the Church will shine as a beacon of unity and healing.
We pray for God’s abundant grace upon Pope Leo as he begins this sacred journey, and we look forward to greater collaboration and unity across the global body of Christ.
May God bless Pope Leo, and may his tenure bring glory to God and healing to our world.
