The Lagos State chapter of the
Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, has called for prayers to stop killings
by herdsmen.
The Chairman of the chapter,
Apostle Alexander Bamgbola, said said this in Lagos on Thursday during a press
conference organised by the body to announce its coming 2018 annual
Inter-denominational Divine Service, tagged ‘Humility in service.’
He said God’s intervention was
needed to bring an end to the attacks.
The cleric noted that the
programme would enable Christians to gather to pray against challenges faced by
the state.
He said, “Prayers for our land
are very paramount. There’s no challenge confronting the state that cannot be
surmounted with prayers. Every situation of the country requires prayers and
that is why we want to urge all the Christian faithful under the umbrella of
CAN to attend the thanksgiving.
“We are not happy with the recent
killings by herdsmen; such happenings cannot be confronted with a violent
approach. This underscores the need for Christians to pray to God.
“There is no stronghold in the
nation that God cannot pull down through prayers. I enjoin all Christians to
attend the programme of great worship to God and corporate prayers for a better
Lagos and Nigeria at large.
“The previous editions of the
programme has done tremendous good to Lagos State, as investors and new
businesses have come into our state and there are many more in progress.”
