What a great figure of speech! I've never heard it before, perhaps it is a Nigerian idiom?

I'm glad that the Vatican is concerned about the state of the liturgy in so many places. The banality has gone on for far too long and it my personal experience it really contributes to people, especially younger ones, leaving the Church. Lex orandi, lex credendi. I just wish that Arinze would not leave us at the mercy of the bishops' conference. Perhaps he is not aware that some of the big cheeses at the USCCB are responsible for the mess we're in - these bishops are the last people who should have any power over reforming the liturgy.
