Cleric urges embrace of peace, truth

CHAIRMAN of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) in Tafawa Balewa Local Council of Bauchi State, Rev. Isaac Istifanus, has asked Nigerians to embrace peace and truth in both their private and public affairs.

He said that the insecurity in Tafawa Balewa had led to a setback in the social, economic, political and agricultural activities in the area.

Istifanus spoke on Monday at a rally organised by CAN to mark Easter and pray for peace in the country and to offer help to families of victims of series of attacks by suspected Hausa Fulani herdsmen.

He said there would be no development if Nigeria continued to face violence and insecurity, adding that the Federal and state Governments ought to be unbiased in the response to threats to peaceful co-existence in any part of the country.
