The Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria has given President Buhari a month to stop the senseless killing of Christians in the North or face a protest so large it would shut the country down.
The statement was made by the PFN, Vice-President (South-South), Bishop Simeon Okah who spoke at a press conference on Thursday at Enerhen in Effurun, Delta State where he called on the president to fire all serving military chiefs in the country including the Director General of the Department of State Services; the Inspector-General of Police and other sister agencies for what he called a failure to arrest the situation from the onset.
He said; “Why we feel so concerned is that the people in the Middle-Belt are not animals or chickens that should be murdered. The issue is not just that they are Christians, but they are human beings. We expect that President Buhari will take action because these people who are being slaughtered all voted for him in 2015.”
Also chiming in was the Primate of the African Church His eminence Dr. Emmanuel Udofia who said that if nothing was done soon, the country would fall into chaos.
He said: “One of the proverbial statements of our elders says ‘the chicken sweats, but it is not known to man because of its feathers.’
“I acknowledge that Mr. President, within his human possibility is doing his best, but with the critical situation of Nigeria, the best as of today is not meeting the challenges of this day.”
