Christian Association of Nigeria censures Kano blast, commiserates with Muslim faithfuls

The Christian Association of Nigeria CAN has censured the bomb assault that occurred yesterday at the Central Mosque in Kano where in excess of 100 persons have been affirmed dead.

“The entire Christian community in Nigeria received the news of the latest in the series of bomb explosions, this time around at the mosque near the Emir’s palace in Kano, with shock and disbelief. This is most unfortunate given the number of people that lost their lives in their bid to offer prayers to their Almighty in the usual Friday worship at the mosque. On behalf of the entire Christians community under the auspices of CAN, I wish to commiserate with the families of the victims especially those who lost their lives in the attack. This attack on the people of Kano is an attack on all Nigerians and must be addressed as such; this is the time for all to rise up and act,. May God help us all as we make this strong efforts at curbing terrorism from our land.”
