Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Lagos State chapter has called on Christians to support the current government in its fight against corruption.
Chairman of the association, Apostle Alexander Bamgbola while addressing newsmen at the Christ Chapel, Alausa, Lagos, said the nation will only move forwards if the citizens joined hands with the current administration to expose and destroy corruption.
According to him: “It should be clear to all Nigerians now; after fifty years, if we do not destroy this demon, it will destroy Nigeria.”
The cleric also called on the federal government to resuscitate the Nigeria Inter-Religion Council (NIREC) established by the Constitution to solidify interpersonal relationships among Christians and Muslims.
“We must never forget that Nigeria is a truly religious nation in all our efforts in building it as a project. The absolute majority is composed of Christians and Muslims who have lived together in peace and harmony for over a century.
“Hence it should clear, that no ruler or political leader can successfully rule a nation like Nigeria without regular and continuous consultation with the religious leaders of the Land,” he noted.
