Late Eselu was the parish priest of St Patrick’s Parish Ezza-Ofu in Ebonyi state.

The Catholic Diocese of Abakaliki on Thursday, confirmed the sudden demise of the priest.

In a statement signed by the Diocesan Chancellor, Rev. Fr. Mathew Uzoma Opoke, it described Eselu as a jovial and dedicated priest who finds pleasure in the celebration of Mass.

“We are hopeful that God, for who, he served, would prepare a banquet full of good things for the one who has served in his vineyard in so remarkable a manner. We ask for your prayers for his eternal repose after his meritorious service. The funeral rite will be announced later,” part of it reads.
