EASTER PROCESSION IN KIRIKIRI TOWN

The Easter day emerged with a soothing weather condition that seemed conducive not minding the howling wind and light showers in the morning. This weather prerequisite however didn’t stop the St. Joseph Catholic’s Church from having its yearly Easter procession.

The Easter celebration is the period set aside to remember the suffering, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. This year’s procession was like chalk and cheese from last years’. The procession was attended by almost all the members of the church. There were estimated to be about 480 people.

The procession drama depicted the bible story of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. How he was beaten, tortured by the Roman soldiers while he carried his own cross with which he will be crucified upon.

The members of the Catholic Youth Organization of Nigeria, Kirikiri chapter made no mistake in their acting. They even made sure Mary and Jesus looked exactly like the act in the movie ‘Passion of the Christ’ and even the blood on Jesus’s face and body seemed real.

Their different costumes looked satisfactory except for the costumes of the Roman soldiers which lacked shoes/sandals.

As they marched along the Cardoso road, many people watched them. Some also viewed from their balconies. Road users understood the reason why the road was jammed and many who watched were able to imagine the suffering of Jesus Christ.

We look forward to next year’s Easter’s procession.
