Boko Haram: Enough Is Enough; Pastor Oritsejafor Warns

Angered by the continuous killing of Christians in the North-eastern part of the country and the dare-devil attacks by Boko Haram, President of Christians Association of Nigeria, Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor, has exploded, warning the heartless terrorists that enough is enough. Oritsejafor, who spoke extensively on Wednesday in Abuja during the National Executive Council (NEC) meeting of CAN, said “territories that have fallen under the control of Boko Haram are predominantly populated by Christians, a sign that Christians are no longer safe in those parts of the country. The CAN President re-echoed his earlier stance that Boko Haram is waging a religious war against Christians, saying that the carnage in the North-east is unacceptable. Oritsejafor said, “What is happening there is unacceptable to us. Christians are the main victims. We are not saying that other people are not affected. But Christians are the ones affected more. All the places where Boko Haram has foisted their flags are dominated by Christians. “They have taken over Mubi in Adamawa state which is dominated by Christians. Somebody will now tell me this is not religion. Who is fooling who? Nigerians should accept that we have a problem.” Calling on Nigerians to pray to God to put an end to the mindless killings, Oritsejafor said he will not join other Nigerians who have created names for themselves, by constantly criticising the military, however called on the leadership of the military to fish out saboteurs in their midst, if the war against terrorism must be won.
