Catholic Diocese Of Idah History
The Catholic Diocese of Idah is located in the Ecclesiastical Province of Abuja, Nigeria along the Niger River in Kogi State Nigeria. The Diocese of Idah largely embodies the Igala and Bassa ethnic groups under the leadership of the Attah Igala, the Igala Supreme Royal Monarchy. The Diocese was first evangelized by the Spiritans (Congregatio Sancti Spiritus), C.S.Sp.
The first missionary to the diocese was Father Joseph Lichtenberger in 1902, and later missionaries of the same Order including the renowned Irish Bishop Joseph Shanahan, the progenitors of the first Catholic mission in Dekina. By 1905, this mission closed as a result of the hostility of the local community, constituted mainly of the Muslims as at the time.
