The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has condemned FrieslandCampina WAMCO Nigeria PLC, makers of Peak Milk, over what it called an offensive Good Friday advert.
General Secretary of CAN, Barrister Joseph Daramola released a statement asking the company to retract the advert and apologize to Christians or face legal action and boycott of their products.
“We find this advert to be insensitive, offensive, and totally unacceptable. Good Friday is a solemn day for Christians all over the world, a day we commemorate the death of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, who was crucified on the cross for our sins. It is not a day to be used for crass commercial purposes,” Daramola said.
The company in a metaphorical manner used the crucifixion of Jesus Christ to promote their product.
“We are deeply disappointed that a company of such repute would stoop so low to exploit the religious sentiments of its customers for profit.” He added
