In an effort to celebrate the 2020 World Peace, the Youth Wing of Christian Association of Nigeria (YOWICAN), Adamawa State Chapter has called on leaders across all divides to embrace Peace.

The charge was given to all Nigerians to embrace war against COVID-19, against aid, against all form of terrorism not against humanity and not against the existence of mankind.

YOWICAN in a Press Release signed by its Chairman, Rev Gabriel L. Shall said Peace is an essential part of human existence without which humanity will go into extinct.


The Adamawa Christian body stressed the need of all Nigeria and world leaders to embrace Peace as the United Nations clamours world peace day.

The statement said the 2020 theme is a wake-up call to "strengthening the ideals of Peace, through observing 24 hours of non-violence and ceasefire" UN General Assembly devoted to Mark the 21st September.

"We charge world leaders, warring factions, terrorists and insurrectionists to lay down all arms and fight to honour humankind with the atmosphere of peace. And as you obey, may the Lord open your heart to see the needlessness of war and bloodshed.

"As the YOWICAN Chairman, Adamawa State Chapter, I urge all warring factions to change the game plan and embrace wars such as the war against COVID 19, malaria, HIV AIDS, etc. May God continue to grant us peace as we labour to ensure a war-free society where human lives are the target. Above all, the Bible says "blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called the sons of God.

"Enjoy the peace and be a good ambassador of peace where ever you are." Shall state
