The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) General Secretary, Joseph Daramola, in a statement released in Abuja yesterday, decried the unending killings in Plateau State and its environs, as well as the activities of bandits and Boko Haram insurgents making life and living difficult in different parts of the North.
Daramola condemned the killing of about 22 people on the Plateau State last week and called on the President and his government to stop paying lips service to the unending killings in the country.
CAN Secretary thus referred to a statement credited to a Minister stating that the President lost his appetite as a result of the killing on the Plateau.
He called on the Federal government to stop recycling the terrorists through de-radicalisation and re-habilitation programmes pointing to civilised nations where criminals who surrendered or arrested are prosecuted and sentenced.
CAN commended Senator Ali Ndume for being at the forefront of the campaign against de-radicalisation and rehabilitation.
The association, therefore, charged the Federal government to fix the security challenges or throw in the towel, insisting that the Police and the military should wake up to their responsibilities before criminals turn the country into another Afghanistan.
