By Friday Olokor, Abuja

The three-day prayer and fasting declared by the Christian Association of Nigeria will start on Friday (today).

CAN President, Samson Ayokunle, said on Thursday that the three-day prayer and fasting was declared to save Nigeria and Christians in particular from being consumed by insurgents, Islamic terrorists, bandits, kidnappers and ritualists.


He enjoined every church in Nigeria to observe the spiritual exercise’s scheduled for between January 31 and February 2, 2020.

Ayokunle in a statement in Abuja said if possible, churches should meet in the evening of each day of fasting to pray together.

According to him, on Sunday February 2, there will be prayer walk around the locality of each church with Christians pronouncing ‘Jesus, the Prince of Peace as Lord’ and displaying placards with the inscription, ‘No to further killings.’

They should also demand that the federal and state governments should rise up to their responsibility of securing the lives and property of the citizens.

Ayokunle said, “Our prayers points include; we bind and rebuke all terrorists, Boko Haram, ISWAP, herdsmen, bandits and kidnappers operating anywhere in Nigeria in Jesus Name. We bind and rebuke all spirits of hatred and murder that are manifesting through terrorism, killings, banditry and kidnappings in Nigeria in Jesus Name. We bind and rebuke all spirits of the anti-Christ and hatred of Christianity in the Name of Jesus Christ.

This is just a fruitless activity and the height of hypocrisy, even the pope and your pastors have bodyguards.

Stupid CAN president that can't organise a national protest. How long do we have to pray for peace in Nigeria ?

I don't know when this so called CAN will have some sense, all the prayer and fasting declared before and after election what happened to them? Even the ones declared when people were slaughtered in Benue and plateau sometimes back what happened to those ones too?, I used to say that God has already done his part the thing remaining 4 the Christians is to do thier own part, even in the Bible there were no coward Christians, 4 instance just imagine if isreal was like the useless CAN.
