[size=16pt]Nigerian Christian pilgrims abscond due to ignorance - CAN [/size] Despite the enduring economic hardship in Nigeria, it is unwise for any Nigerian Christian pilgrim to Israel to abscond from his country’s camp during the pilgrimage to remain in the holy land in search of greener pastures. The chairman, FCT Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) Rev. Fr. (Dr.) Ojukwu made this observation at the opening of the 2009 pilgrimage stakeholders workshop in Abuja yesterday, attributing the act to the absconders’ ignorance of the economic conditions of other countries and the hardships to which Nigerians are subjected there. The FCT CAN chairman observed that Nigerians who are plucking oranges, apples and tomatoes and working as slaves in farms in Israel are suffering more than Okada riders in Nigeria. He said it is only the illusion and utopia of greener pastures of abounding in Israel that lure the absconding pilgrims who, he said, get disappointed on getting there, but feel ashamed of coming back home without having anything to show as economic achievement. The Executive Secretary, Nigerian Christian Pilgrims Commission Dr. John J. Opara had earlier revealed that out of the 17,600 pilgrims in 2008, 23 had absconded. In his speech, FCT Minister of State, Chf. Chuka Odom, represented by the FCTA Permanent Secretary Dr. Rafeeq Ogunbambi said the stakeholders’ workshop was to ensure that all participants avail and equip themselves with the right information necessary for the smooth conduct of the Holy Pilgrimage. Chairman, FCT Christian Pilgrims Welfare Board, Col. (Rtd) John Y. Madaki, at the occasion, said the sale of application forms for 2009 pilgrims was still in progress at the cost of N2, 500. He also said that a pre-visit to Israel and Rome has been held preparatory to the pilgrimage proper and a meeting with the air carriers was held on July 10, 2009. for SOURCE: Click here |
