As a lecturer in the Department of Canon Law, CIWA for several years, Rev. Fr. Prof. Cosmas Aluede Ojemen, a Catholic priest of Uromi diocese, served as Head of the Department of Canon Law, CIWA, and the Dean of the Faculty of Canon Law, CIWA.
As an eminent scholar, he made significant contributions in the field of Canon Law with his multitude of books and paper presentations. His books on “Psychological Factors in Matrimonial Consent in the Light of Canonical Legislation” and “Organization of the Christian Faithful in the Parish: For Active Participation in the Mission and Ministry of the Church,” which focus on the organization of the Christian faithful in the parish and the active participation in the mission and ministry of the Church, are second to none.
He proudly mounted the rostrum as the 4th Inaugural Lecturer in the Catholic Institute of West Africa on 25th November 2022, an epitome of a scholar, contributing to the quality and standard of the Canon Law as one of the excellent and humble sons of the Canon Law Family in Nigeria.
This is another grave blow on the academic history of Canon Law, CIWA after the death of Very Rev Fr Prof John Gangwari.
With total and unwavering hope in the resurrection of the dead, we pray that the faithful soul of Rev. Fr. Prof Cosmas Ojemen may have his rest in the bosom of the eternal Father, Amen. Requiescat in pace. Amen๐ฏ๏ธ๐ฏ๏ธ๐ฏ๏ธ
