This
work comprises six chapters. Chapter 1 is regarded as the introductory
part of the work. It contains the background of study, statement of
problem, purpose of study, significance of study, scope of study,
methodology and the division of work. Chapter 2 is the literature review
of what other authors said on the topic which also I include the
documents of the Church, especially the Vatican Council II, and the
Scriptures. Chapter 3 is an elaboration on the Igbo traditional
priesthood and peeps into the vocation to the Igbo priesthood, his
training, his installation or consecration and his functions. Chapter 4
is also an elaboration of Catholics priesthood and its contents; his
call to the office, training, ordination and priestly call to holiness.
Chapter 5 is the comparative study, which is all about some of
convergences and divergences of priesthood of both religions. Chapter 6
is the evaluation and conclusion. The last is the bibliography.
