Lives That Are Being Wasted In Nigeria Is Troubling And God Is Never Happy With As As A Nation – Christian Leaders

Leaders of All Nation’s Christian Assembly (ANCA), have opined that God is not happy with  Nigeria due to the daily rise in cases of kidnapping, banditry, and other crimes.

According to the clergymen,  killings and kidnapping have become the order of the day in the country, a situation that is not common among animals.

In a press conference on Friday,  August 13, the Council Chairman of ANCA, Mr. Sunday Oibe said that the country is bleeding and needs help.

“Life given by God is sacred and must be protected. Even in the animal kingdom, they don’t kill each other except for food. Lives that are being wasted in Nigeria are troubling and God is never happy with us as a nation.

“The church is troubled because; it looks as if the non-state actors are leading whereas the state actors seem to be overwhelmed. We urge President Buhari to declare an emergency in the security sector of the country by seeking help and collaboration with external bodies to tame the menace of Boko Haram, herdsmen, kidnapping that have led to the loss of lives of many Nigerians.

“The growing state of insecurity is of great concern to the church, particularly at this stage of our development as a nation.

“We call on both our political and traditional institutions and leaders to do everything within their powers to stamp out the menace of insecurity in our nation. The responsibility of every responsible government is the protection of the lives and property of its citizenry.

“We urge our political leadership in this country under President Buhari to do everything within its power to unite Nigeria irrespective of tribe, religion, and party,” the statement said.
