In a press statement issued yesterday in Onitsha, Anambra state, the state chairman of CAN, Rev. Ndubuisi John recalled that since the emergence of COVD-19 till date, Nigeria has recorded only 12 deaths from Coronavirus, while insurgence has claimed hundreds of lives of innocent citizens of Nigeria.

According to Rev. Ndubuisi, “For instance, last month in Yobe state, Nigeria lost 100 gallant combatant soldiers to Boko haram insurgents who ambushed and battered their lives with bullets”.

“Oh! what a loss to Nigerian government two weeks ago in Plateau state where herdsmen waylaid the Miango community, killing as many people as they could since they have the monopoly of deadly weaponry”.

“Few weeks ago at Askira Uba, a community in Borno state, the raging Boko haram insurgents invaded and shattered the unarmed community with bullets and sending many of them to early grave”.

“Also in Taraba state, Herdsmen wrecked their havoc and were  only able to kill 25 persons. My question therefore is where are the true elders of this great nation, Nigeria? Will you all be shouting bravo in the face of all these ugly socio/political atrocities and religious upheavals?”

“Arise Oh compatriots, Nigeria call obey, to serve our father land, with all God-given ability and save the beauty of togetherness and brotherhood in Nigeria which is the philosophy behind one indivisible nation”.
