Nigeria, 9th Worst Country For Christians To Live:
—Bishop Kukah

His words: “Now Nigeria is being ranked as 9th worst country for Christians to live in. We are number nine and Iran is number eight, everywhere I go, people keep asking me what is happening to Christians and Muslims in Nigeria. Toxic politics has now poisoned our religion.

“Though I am not a Vetinarian, but I was told that when a dog is barking, you walk towards it because if you turn back, it would attack. My point is that we Christians must walk towards the barking dog”.
He lamented the high rate of insecurity in the country, and urged the government to rise up to the occasion.

“As I speak, for past three weeks my priest, a young man and a sister, are still in captivity even though the Nigerian state wishes to pretend that we are not negotiating with the kidnappers but as I am talking we are negotiating with the kidnappers because I don’t know how else to get back my priest.

“It is a very painful experience, my own blood relations have been kidnapped, I lost a Priest last year to kidnappers, I have lost a Seminarian to kidnappers and somehow we like to pretend we have a government, of course we have the apparatus of government, we have the scaffolding, but this scaffolding is important because people are able see access and appropriate resources of state.

“As to what the state needs to do, they are still far away from that reality. It is a very painful and sad reality that as at the last conversation with the kidnappers we have negotiated up to N20 million which I do not have.

“And the kidnappers think this is chicken fee. And I am supposed to pay money to people who are murderers, who would murder anybody; I am supposed to pay money to people who are buying aeroplane and killing people as you hear about Southern Kaduna last week. I was supposed to pay money to people who are prepared to destroy our country and there seems to be no sign to end this madness,” he said.

Political Affairs Int

Very true. May God Almighty help us. And some set of APC urchins are campaigning for Muslim-Muslim ticket.

Blame the god you claim to serve tho...
Is it now about Christians or human in general..

Tell your God to release them if he can..cos I see no essence for one to serve a lifeless god who can't come to ya aid when you need him..or ain't he aware that his children got kidnapped..?

You serve a lifeless god who can do nothing about the Killin of his children and you still complain? dispose off your so called Religion and be a realist by facing reality..
Not until Nigerians start thinking with their head..

All thanks to the evil party.....

bishop wey don sip alcohol abi

They should go back and recheck their facts! Pray, in which countries have Christians been slaughtered more in the past one year than they have been slaughtered in ‘one Nigeria’!?

Their evil Islamic agenda will never work in Nigeria...

They have tried it before, it will never work...

JESUS is LORD!!!

Peter Obi for president.
