Christians in Arua Diocese have been urged to live in love and unity. The call was made by Fr Dominic Bileo Matoni during celebrations marking the belated silver jubilee of his priesthood on June 20, 2025.
Fr Matoni revealed that the celebration was supposed to be held in Congo but was moved to Mutu-Alivu in Ediofe Parish, Arua Diocese, due to an Ebola outbreak.

He also emphasised that education is the foundation, saying no one can become a priest without education.
