Malawi-based Nigerian Catholic Priest, Fr. Kelvin Ugwu has responded to a follower who criticized him for having lunch with a woman in a hotel.

The missionary priest who had earlier announced that he has been transferred to Gambia from Malawi, went to have a goodbye lunch with a woman at a restaurant located in a hotel.

He shared a picture from the outing on his Facebook page on Thursday, Julu 15, and disclosed that the woman, Peggy Chinwemwe, invited him out on the lunch.

However, a follower who had suspicion about the outing queried the priest for going to a hotel with a woman.

Dicta Ogodo commented: “Going to hotel with a woman for goodbye lunch. What should we learn from this one”

Reacting, Fr. Ugwu shared a screenshot of the comment and advised the follower to ask God to purify his mind.

“Dicta Ogodo, Okay, remove hotel, put “restaurant”. Okay, remove “restaurant,” put “public place”. Okay, remove “public place,” put “God purify my dirty mind”, and you will see that you would have learnt something. And if you still did not learn anything, remove “God purify my dirty mind” and put “Ewu Gambia” he wrote.
