The Catholic Bishop of Abakaliki Diocese, Most Rev. Peter Chukwu has asked Mohammadu Buhari's led administration to decisively tackle the insecurity in the country
Addressing journalists in Abakaliki, Ebonyi State capital after inauguration of Catholic Media Practitioners Association (CAMPAN), the state branch, Rev Chukwu condemned incessant kidnap, killings and destruction of churches by hoodlums in the country
The cleric who said the people of Nigeria have lost faith with the Federal Government following spate of insecurity in the land expressed the fear that the continued existence of Nigeria as a corporate entity was under serious question mark if the situation was not solved.
He prayed for peaceful, free, fair and credible 2023 elections to enable Nigerians to elect credible leaders that will solve the problems of the country.
“People who are rational are very uncomfortable with what is going on. So, it is very unfortunate. Appeals have not helped in this government. We have lost faith in the current government to restore security.
“What we are praying for is peaceful free and fair elections that will usher in God chosen leaders who will solve problems of this country and if that problem is not solved, the continued existence of Nigeria as a corporate entity is under a very serious question mark,” he stated.
He called on journalists to hold candidates for the 2023 general elections to task for them to present their manifestos to the people to enable Nigerians select and elect credible leaders at the polls.
