Lagos state governor Akinwunmi Ambode has ordered that officials of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) shouldn’t be granted access to the Chapel of Light tomorrow for a planned press conference.
The Lagos state chapter of the body had scheduled a press conference to express displeasure with last week’s Appeal Court ruling that female Muslim students should be allowed to wear Hijab to public schools.
The press conference was slated for 10am.
But a top official of the body confided in Naijachurchnews that the Chaplain informed the governor had ordered that the gate of the chapel should be locked to the CAN event.
The CAN official said: “Our press conference is for 10am but we just got a communication that the governor has ordered we shouldn’t be allowed in to the venue.
“We can’t understand why he issued the order. The governor, a supposed Christians, has clearly shown that he is on the side of the Muslims.
“He fears them greatly. He has not attended CAN’s functions since he came on board. But he has been openly fraternizing with Muslims.”
The source went on: “He is the first governor that will not attend the annual Interdenominational Divine Service in the last 17 years.
“This is a shame to the body of Christ and we won’t allow this stand.”
Our correspondent gathered that CAN officials are geared for a showdown with the governor over the shut –off order.
Those who spoke with naijachurchnews said they will be at the venue and hold the press conference in front of the facility meant for Christians.
One of them said: “We would hold the press conference. Even if they don’t open the gate for us, we would be at the front of Chapel to address the media.
“This has shown that the governor is out against us.”
