Pope Francis Speaks On ‘Frequent Kidnappings’ In Nigeria by Wisdomkosi(m): 10:02am On Feb 26
Head of the Catholic Church, Pope Francis, has expressed concerns over the frequent abductions in Nigeria are extremely.

In a post via X (Twitter) on Sunday, February 26, 2024, Pope Francis noted that he was praying and hoping that efforts would be made to contain these incidents.

“The increasingly frequent kidnappings in Nigeria are extremely concerning,” he said.

“I express my closeness in prayer to the Nigerian people, hoping that efforts will be made to contain the spread of these incidents as much as possible.”


The Pope’s concern comes amid an uptick in abductions for ransom in some parts of the country.

The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) has also not been spared as kidnappers lay siege to certain estates and border communities.

Pope Francis should not waste his prayers on Nigeria.

Since APC became the major opposition till this day, they have always been anti Nigeria, spoiling every sector of the country.

Let the country sink to the ground.

In next election, i will vote APC.

The more bad things happens under APC, the happier i get, Fvck Nigeria.

Best answer is to set up an anti kidnap squad.

Remember that insecurity was never an issue in Nigeria until discussions that led to the birthing of APC were conceived and commenced.

Since APC was birthed Nigeria has never rested from insecurity.

Unfortunately, prayer is not the solution to our problems in Nigeria. The people entrusted with power must take the right action if they want peace and security in the land.

Is that the reason for kidnapping?

So Pope should leave the kidnapping issue cos it doesn't matter?

Ok

As a catholic, this is welcome. Nigeria's problem can't be solved by prayers alone though. We need physical, spiritual, psychological, and political help in this country.

Ronus have successfully ushered in the Great Tinuflation.

Manhood Yakubu will go down in history as the infamous oloribruku who subverted the democratic rights of millions of Nigerians and future generations for a plate of pottage.

As for Bulaba, he has simply accomplished his lifelong desire of answering Commander in Chief.

Whatever you all are saying out there, it doesn't concern him so long as Aso Rock's amenities are fully functional and his private jet is serviced.

Ronus have already taught him to see the masses as unfortunates who would massively throng the gates of Bourdillion for crumbs.

Even if the middle class totally collapses into the lower class, man no send.

Bulaba's three point agenda is to loot, kill and destroy.

Him never even begin tax services and commodities.

This is the kind of conversation you should be restricted to as it concerns Nigeria & Africa in general. Others include, high poverty rate, low life expectancy, high unemployment rate, maternal mortality rate, etc.

Which efforts has the church done to curtail this incessant kidnapping in Nigeria.? It's not just to sit and condemn the act alone.!

The Catholic church should as a matter humanitarian savour, endeavor to feed hungry Christians, (even if it's only her members) in Nigeria.

Nigerians are dying and needs the church intervention. Please.
