The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) in the 19 Northern States and Abuja has said that the statement of US President Donald Trump on alleged killings of Christians in Nigeria should serve as an opportunity for both faith communities to demand concrete steps from the government to ensure the safety and freedom of all citizens, irrespective of religion or identity.
The Chairman of the association, Rev. John Hayab, who stated this in Abuja on Tuesday urged Nigerians to use US President Donald Trump’s recent statement as a call for unity and collective action.
Hayab said rather than viewing Trump’s comments as divisive, Nigerians should see them as an opportunity to work together to end killings and religious intolerance across the country.
“Trump’s statement about Christian genocide in Nigeria should be an opportunity for peace-loving Christians and Muslims to unite and demand concrete action by our government to stop the killing of anybody because of religion or any form of identity,” Hayab said.
According to him, a fair reading of Trump’s words reveals concern rather than condemnation, portraying the voice of an outsider urging Nigerians to uphold peace and unity.
“If you choose to read President Trump’s statement with an open mind, you will simply hear the voice of a visitor who cares about you and wants you to do something serious to enjoy peace and unity in your country,” he added.
