It is an amalgam of architectural novelty and aesthetic splendour. Unprecedented and unparalled. Palatial and celestial. Lavishly furnished with a state-of-the-art details. Located in a luxuriant and picturesque site. A class of five star hotel. A home of welcome. It is the proposed Aba Diocesan pastoral center.
2 Kings 12:11
"They gave the money which was weighed out into the hands of those who did the work, who had the oversight of the house of the LORD; and they paid it out to the carpenters and the builders who worked on the house of the LORD".
Come let us build a house for the Lord.

Date: 2021-09-03 - 2021-12-31
The Solemnity of Christ the King will be held on 27th November, 2021.
This Solemnity which is the official feast of the Diocese, and also the feast of the Cathedral Parish, will be held in the Cathedral. It will begin with a Pontiifical High Mass at exactly 10:45am. A mass which will be presided by the Chief Shepherd of the Catholic Diocese of Aba, Most Rev. Prof. Augustine Ndubueze Echema.
After the Mass, the other activities follow, in line with the directives of the Universal and Local Church.
The story of Christ the King Cathedral is reminiscent of St. Paul's interpretation of Christian growth, (1 Cor 3: 6 - 7, 10): the one sows, the other waters; the one lays the foundation, all others build on this foundation. The final product is the Body of Christ, exalted, glorious, and holy.
