A seminarian of the Nsukka Catholic Diocese, Enugu State, Mr. Hillary Tobechukwu Eze, has passed away in a tragic accident one week before his ordination as a deacon.
Eze, who was to be ordained a deacon on December 23, 2023, lost his life last Friday, December 15.
The deceased was an indigene of Ehalumona town in Nsukka Local Government Area of Enugu State.
A report by the portal, Peoples voice said he was going with his mates for their retreat for the ordination and had an accident and died on the spot.
“A few days leading to his death, he had made posts on his Facebook page as if he knew he was about to die.
“In one of his posts, Eze wrote that he did not understand the place he was heading to, yet he was rushing to the place. Amid doubt or questions about where he was heading, Eze reassured himself that Jesus was the one leading the way,” the report said.
It quoted the late seminarian as writing: “I sincerely do not understand where I am heading to but I am rushing to that place. Why?
“Jesus is the one leading the way.”
Another of his post read: “Dabere Chineke (God).
