His Grace Frank Nubuasah now elavated in Rank to Become an “Archbishop ad personam”.

Enormous congratutatory messages continue to pure out for  His Grace Frank Nubuasah, Bishop of the Diocese of Gaborone who has been elevated in rank as Archbishop of his diocese.



The Southern African Catholic Bishops explained on their website that:  “The Holy Father has also granted the title of Archbishop (Archbishop ad personam) to the Most Reverend Franklyn Atese Nubuasah, Bishop of Gaborone, as a recognition for his years of missionary service in Botswana”.

Although the Diocese of Gaborone remains a Diocese, Archbishop Nubuasah is now the Archbishop of the Diocese. The rank of Archbishop ad personam is conferred on some bishops who are not Bishops of an Archdiocese. They hold the rank, not because of the see that they head but because it has been granted to them personally (ad personam). Thus the Diocese of Gaborone remains a Diocese.

We congratulate Archbishop Franklyn Nubuasah for this recognition from the Holy Father and keep him in our prayers.
