Saturday, September
28, was a cool day. It was unusually breezy. But, for the parishioners of St Anthony Catholic Church, it was a
day to go spotty.
The venue
was the popular police college in Ikeja, Lagos and the game- a football match between
the male and female members of the church.
Incidentally,
the Catholic Church, with Rev Fr Paul
Omotosho in-charge, is located right there at the very heart of Mopol
barrack, opposite Area F police command.
The role, our reporter, who watched the
exciting match observed is that the female footballers must be 45 years and above
as well as parishioners of the church. The same goes for the male.
But, at the
end of the game, the ladies walloped the men, three goals to one. This sounds rather
curious, even as Mrs Mec Igaghon,
leader of the female team was visibly excited.

further gathered that the whole spotty affair was to enable the parishioners
keep fit and be healthy for their physical and spiritual activities.
Though the men
lost to the ladies, Patrick Ekanem, president
of catholic men organization was also happy. Incidentally, it the very day Fr
Omotosho clocked 41 years. So, it was really bumper celebrations, you must say.
