Many Catholics in Uyo are confused on why popular catholic priest, who is also a radio preacher would resign from the priesthood.
Fondly referred to as Rev. Fr. Patrick Henry Edet, he announced his resignation from the Catholic church on Wednesday.
According to a report shared by Special Assistant on Media to Akwa Ibom State Governor, Aniekeme Finbarr, Fr. Patrick is really happy as he ceases to be a catholic priest.
Aniekeme wrote:
“JUST IN: Catholic Priest, Rev. Fr. Patrick Henry Edet has resigned from the catholic priesthood, quits the Catholic Church. He says he should be addressed as Reverend Patrick Edet. And on a lighter note, he says he can still be called Fr.
“From Today Henceforth, I cease to be a Catholic Priest, in my spirit and in my soul… I forgive those who will criticize me, I live for God…I seek freedom for my soul. As I leave, I leave smiling, I AM SO HAPPY THAT I AM FREE.”
What could have gone wrong?
