THE MOST REV. DR. BEN KWASHI
The Most Rev.B.A.Kwashi was born in September 1955 at Amper, in Plateau State, Nigeria. He was born
into a church-going family, and went through normal primary education, attending the Nigerian Military

church's ministry in 1976. He therefore served in the church for some two years before being sent for
training to the Theological College of Northern Nigeria, at Bukuru, Jos. He was ordained in 1982 and
between 1982 and 1988 served as Vicar, and District Chairman of St.Andrew's, Zaria, St.Mary's Gedege
and St.Andrew's Zonkwa. In 1990 he was appointed Rector of St.Francis of Assisi Theological College,
Wusasa, Zaria, and in 1992 he was consecrated and enthroned as Bishop of Jos. In January 2008 he
was presented as the Archbishop of Jos Province (Church of Nigeria).
