CAN, Sultan unite in demand for action against terrorism, hardship in Nigeria

The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) and the Nigeria Supreme Council on Islamic Affairs (NSCIA) have joined forces to condemn the growing trend of terrorism and hardship in Nigeria.

The two umbrella organizations, representing the country’s Christian and Islamic populations, respectively, urged the Federal and state governments to take decisive action against those responsible for the mayhem.

Speaking at the fourth quarterly meeting of the Nigeria Inter-Religious Council (NIREC) in Abuja on Tuesday, CAN President Daniel Okoh and NSCIA President-General Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar III, who is also the Sultan of Sokoto, delivered separate remarks that echoed each other’s sentiments.
