CAN Protests Moves To List Nigeria Among Arab Nations To Fight ISIS by ican2020: 2:49pm On Dec 17, 2015 |
UMBRELLA body of Christians in Nigeria, the Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, last night protested the attempt by the current All Progressives Congress, APC, government to subtly enlist Nigeria among Arab nations to fight ISIS. It was reported on foreign news last night that Saudi Arabia was building a coalition of 34 Muslim/Arab countries to fight ISIS and Nigeria was named among the 34. A statement late last night by the General Secretary of CAN, Rev. Musa Asake, said: “This singular gesture of the Buhari government betrays so much, and tends to confirm our fears that underneath everything this government is doing, there is an agenda with strong Islamic undertones, aimed at undermining Nigeria’s pluralistic character and neutrality regarding government’s affiliation to any one religion. “While joining hands with other countries to fight ISIS is something good, our country must not be tagged as a Muslim or Arab nation. Christians must make a public statement showing their discontent on this development which portends great danger to national unity and integration http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/12/can-protests-moves-to-list-nigeria-among-arab-nations-to-fight-isis/ |

Very good, we are neither an Islamic or christian state... If we ever should recognize as a religious state (which is uncalled for and absurd) it should even be the African traditional religion not uphold alien beliefs and culture to the detriment of our own original heritage 1 Like |

We have Boko haram and we shouldn't stretch our resources fighting ISIS. Also, we are not Arabs |

johnydon22: But you also adopted your atheistic belief. If not for the white people, you would have been bowing down to a stone by now. We are christians: THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. |

HCpaul:Again you mistake atheism for belief i still am not surprised.. and your referencing of African traditional beliefs to bowing to stones just betrays how sadly ignorant and naive you are about the African traditional beliefs and religion. it is sad that you an African know nothing of your own indigenous beliefs but takes the total misconceptions fed to you by an alien religion. You need to go study the African trad religion and i hope if you are honest with yourself, you can correct yourself according and please minimize the rate you wash out simpleton-like statements in public Have fun with that 1 Like 1 Share |

ISIS exists because CAN cannot do its job. |
