Prof Pius Abioje, a former Catholic priest and lecturer at the University of Ilorin in Kwara State, has switched alliances.
According to the former Catholic priest, Christianity is a tool of modern-day slavery. Africans should do the needful and end it.
He claimed that he was duped into becoming a Christian and becoming a priest but that when he returned to his senses, he abandoned the priesthood. African religion is the only way to communicate with God truly.

According to the former Head of the Department of Religion at UNILORIN, he left the Catholic church because the concepts he preached did not set well with him, and maturity assisted him in realizing this.
Along the line, I saw that it (priesthood) was not where I belonged but I could not just rush out of it. In the first instance, I never saw myself being celibate, that was why I was surprised when I saw myself joining the priesthood and I had to consult a diviner. I started envying married people. That is what I can tell you. The former catholic priest stated.
Started with St Kizito’s Minor Seminary in Ede (Osun State) in 1973. After that, I attended SS Peter and Paul Catholic Seminary, Bodija, Ibadan (Oyo State) 1977. In 1981, I was sent to Rome with the current Bishop of Oyo Diocese, Emmanual Badejo. We studied together in Rome and, that was where we completed our seminary training with a university degree. We returned to Nigeria and I was ordained in 1985 and left in 2000, 15 years after becoming a catholic priest, I can attest that is useless.
