Members of the Christian community in Plateau State staged a rally in Jos, the state capital, on Monday, in a demonstration against the heinous Christmas Eve killings of over 200 persons in the Bokkos and Barkin-Ladi local government areas by blood-thirsty marauders.
The leaders alongside, their placard-bearing followers, marched to the Government House in Rayfield, Jos, where they were received by Governor Caleb Mutfwang.
The leaders of the Christian community described as “unprovoked, wicked, satanic and genocidal”, the killings of innocent and harmless residents in the state by gunmen. They said the recent attacks were targeted at Christians with Christmas as the timing.
The leaders include the Chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) in Plateau, Polycarp Lubo; President of the Evangelical Church Winning All (ECWA), Stephen Panya; President of the Church of Christ in Nations (COCIN), Amos Mohzo; Bishop of Methodist Church, Jos, Nkechi Nwosu; Gideon ParaMallam, among other prominent Christian leaders in the state.
