The Federal Government says it will come up with security plans that will guarantee the safety of lives and property in worship centres across the country.

Chris Ngige, Minister for Labour and Employment, said this in Amakwa, Ozubulu in Ekwusigo council when he led a delegation to commiserate with the people and government of Anambra on Saturday over last week’s attack in a church.

The delegation was led to St. Philips Catholic Church by Nkem Okeke, Deputy Governor of Anambra and Hillary Okeke, the Catholic Bishop of Nnewi Diocese.

Mr. Ngige said the Federal Government would cooperate with Anambra to ensure that the culprits were brought to book.
The minister, who described the attack as heinous, wicked and sacrilegious, said the delegation would report back to the presidency.
He said the Federal Government would also work out a security framework that would protect worshipers anywhere in the country.
Mr. Ngige, who was briefed by the Bishop and Parish Priest of the church, Jude Onwuaso, said efforts would be made to forestall future recurrence.

In his remarks, the deputy governor said the church was praying for the repentance of the perpetrators.
He said the government and the security agencies could go ahead with the hunt for the culprits, but as Christians, the diocese was praying that the masterminds should change their ways.

He called for prayers and support for the victims either directly to the affected families or through the church through its Victims’ Support Fund.
Other members of the delegation included the Minister of State for Education, Anthony Anwukah, the Minister of Health, Isaac Adewole, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Geoffrey Onyeama and the Minister of State for Environment, Ibrahim Jubrin.

What's the need of providing security for the worship centers when you guys have concluded that it is drug war that's going on?

Okay, how does this "conclusion" rule out tightening up of security around worship centres?

If same is not done, you will still complain.

Nawao

God dey.

First tell us who is attacting the religion center
Who is the energy of the holy Christian houses
Is it drug dealers in far away places
I don't think so
The islamisation is real

Government should not only beef up security in worship centres, but in the entire nation, what's the point of being secured in the church but when you come out from church you are highly insecured. Of a truth there is a high level of insecurity right now in the country, in a way we have never seen before, kidnappings,armed robbery, assasinations and cultism are on the high rise these days in the country, sometimes one wonders at all if there's any security apparatus in the country, and also you wonder where the heavy funds appropriated for security vote is going to, may God help this country.

What it means is that the drug war story is not the TRUTH

@above, if Bokoharam/whomever attacks mosques and churches up north and Drug barons/whomever attacks churches down South, it perhaps makes sense to conclude places of worship need extra security.

I wonder how they gonna secure these centres of worship.

Nwodosis:

Okay, not the truth, agreed, now what is the problem in beefing up security around worship centres in view of recent happenings?

The government know what really happed at OZUBULU is drug war but terrorist attack.
This just a sign that the country called Nigeria is gradually coming to an end
