Panic In Lafia As Mob Attempts Demolishing A Church by benueguy(m): 11:44pm On Jun 29, 2016
“And it is no exaggeration to say that humanity’s future depends on us uniting against those who would divide us along the fault lines of tribe or sect, race or religion.” -Barack Obama
At this critical period in our nation's history when majority of citizens daily are moving from pillar to pole looking for what to EAT&SURVIVE, however, for some few, an opposite religion place of worship is their problem.
Lafia, a land of the most hospitable Migili people (co-founder of the Great Kwararafa kingdom), the capital of our heritage (Nasarawa state), was today throw into panic by some mob. This enemies of humanity came out en-mass to demolish a Church but failed, as they were over-powered by the sane men on ground.
The Christ Embassy Church situated in Millionaires Quarters Lafia, N/state, which is currently been fenced for security purpose, according to this bad eggs among us, who are also resident of the area, they don't want any other place of worship beside theirs.
Though, there was some lingering issues over land boundary, between the Church and a brother (muslim), whose land was mistakenly trespassed by the hired contractor handling the fence building project to provide security. but it has been resolved amicably.
The dispute through the efforts of the Nasarawa Urban Development Board (NUDB) and our royal father, the Emir of Lafia, Alh. (Dr.) Mustapha Agwai I, had brought the matter to a conclusion through compromise and in the interest of both parties involved.
We at n-Mirror believe Nigeria was not built on religious, or ethnic affiliations, but rather was built on a few common ideals: that every individual had a right to pursue his own happiness, all men had a right to Liberty, or free will, all men had a right to Life and all men were created equal in the eyes of God. Therefore, we must learn to live together in peace or perish like fools.
Lastly, we leave the general public with this immortal words of Shehu Usman Dan Fodio, “a kingdom can endure with unbelief, but it cannot endure with injustice”. Thank you.
