The General Evangelist of the Christ Apostolic Church Worldwide, Prophet Samuel Abiara, has called on Northern leaders to talk to their youths concerning the quit notice issued on Igbos residing in the region.
He said such actions could lead to another civil war in Nigeria.
The cleric spoke at a 30-day revival programme tagged, “While men slept,” held at the Ikorodu area of Lagos State, yesterday.
He said, “I want to call on all Nigerians to keep their minds at rest, especially our Igbo brothers and sisters who have been asked to leave the northern part of the country. God is our father and he owns Nigeria. He will help us as long as we obey Him.
“I admonish all the easterners not to panic at all. God is in control. They should not react negatively to this matter.
“I also want to appeal to the northern youths to allow peace to reign. I call on the northern elders to calm these angry youths.
“We must know that there is no peace in chaos. They must remember that Nigeria has yet to recover from the last civil war that claimed millions of lives and destroyed property.”
The cleric also noted that any plot to overthrow the Nigerian government through a coup would fail.
