Jos—The Chairman, Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, in the 19 northern states and the FCT, Rev. Yakubu Pam, has said that Church leaders in Nigeria are law-abiding citizens of the country and would remain so in their conduct.

He also said that no pastor or Church leader would do anything that would create security breach in any part of the country.

Rev. Pam, who spoke on the heels of the recent interaction between Apostle Johnson Suleman of Omega Fire Ministries and the Department of State Services, DSS, in Abuja, also noted that the incident that occurred between the DSS and the cleric at Ekiti State recently, could have been managed properly if there was mutual understanding between the parties.

He called on security agencies to always have Church leaders in the North in confidence and urged government at all levels to ensure a conducive atmosphere for Nigerians to practice their faith in any part of the country without fear and intimidation.

He said: “We are all partners in our collective drive to ensure a peaceful Nigeria, where the interests of all would be protected.”
