“Fr Murphy was a member of the congregation of the Holy Spirit, (Spiritans).

The Irish born priest “was born in 1932 and ordained to the priesthood in 1960. Since then, he had worked all his priesthood in Nigeria,” the letter said.

Bishop Anagbe who noted that funeral arrangements would be communicated later, prayed for the repose of Fr Murphy and the souls of all the faithful departed.
