The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), has called on Nigerians to keep on praying for peace for the well-being of the nation.
The advice was given by its National President, Bishop Samson Ayokunle on Friday while speaking to journalists in Enugu State.
Represented by the Director of Planning and Social Welfare, Bishop Stephen Adegbite, Ayokunlenurged the government to be fair to all Nigerians.
The president also mentioned that the association stood by the decision of governors of southern Nigeria banning open grazing in their states.
He reiterated that cattle rearing was a private business, insisting that nobody should destroy the business of another while carrying its own business.
Ayokunle noted that the decision would help to check those hiding under cattle grazing to unleash terror on the residents of the region.
Meanwhile, the newly elected Chairman of CAN, Southeast zone, Very Rev. Fr. Abraham Nwali said he would take proactive measures to champion peace amongst Christians in the southeast, Igbos and the entire country.
Nwali stressed the need for the restoration of peace in the region, NAN.
