Clergy & Staff

Rev. Chukwudi Jovita Okonkwo (Fr. Jo or Jovis as he prefers to be called) hails from Uli in Nigeria, sixth among the eight children of Martin and Priscilla Okonkwo.

Fr. Jo received his elementary education both at home and at Holy Ghost Primary School, Ndiegungwu Uli, where his dad taught for several years, before retiring as headmaster.

At the age of four, he knew that he was called to the priesthood and announced same to the family, which from then started to call him “Fr. Jo.”
