Nigeria: Muslim Youths Protect Churches in Minna
Muslim youths yesterday grouped themselves to guard churches in Minna, Niger State Capital, during Sunday Services.The youths said this was aimed at furthering their campaign for the promotion of inter-religious unity in the country.
The leader of the group, Gimba Kakanda, who spoke to Daily Trust, said, “We are protecting our fellow Christian brothers and sisters to show the world that our leaders cannot use religion to divide us. We want to send a signal by coming here to protect Christians that we are one and we can stand to protect one another”. »»» allAfrica.com
Boko Harm, a radical, so-called “Muslim” sect that has claimed responsibility for church bombings has demanded that all Christians leave Northern Nigeria. They violate the commandments of God and the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him), who have said that Christians must be allowed to live in peace among Muslims and that Muslims must do eveything in their power to protect the Christians’ lives, honour and property.
