Pope Francis has appointed Bishop Emmanuel Badejo of the Catholic Diocese of Oyo to the Vatican Dicastery for Communications.

The appointment was announced in a statement made available by Rev. Fr. John Irekiigbe, the Director of Communications, Oyo Diocese, to the News Agency of Nigeria on Friday.

NAN reports that the Dicastery of Communications is the administrative department of the Holy See through which Pope Francis directs affairs that pertain to Social Communications in the Roman Catholic Church. Badejo has, since 2015, been the Bishop President for CEPACS, the French acronym for the Pan African Episcopal Committee for Social Communications, which is the communications committee of Bishops for the Symposium of Episcopal Conferences of Africa and Madagascar.

Badejo, a communications scholar, served as the Communications Secretary and later on, Director, to the Catholic Bishops Conference of Nigeria between 1996 and 2003. He is currently the Vice-Chairman, Social Communications Department of the Regional Episcopal Conferences of West Africa.
