President Buhari
This was contained in a statement issued in Ibadan after an emergency meeting of the Movement on Friday and signed by the National Coordinator of the Movement, Wole Adedoyin.
Lambasting Buhari “for not taking any action in the past on major religious killings in the country”, CDM called for the perpetrators of violence in the North-East to be held to account. The Movement also accused the international community of failing to act.
“We already know that President Buhari’s fight against corruption is one sided. He should not limit his fight against fake corruption agenda is pursuing. He should concentrate on other national issues begging for his attention. Inter religious groups like CAN and their Muslim counterpart should be called for an emergency meeting,” CDM said.
It noted that the attacks on Christians killed specifically due to their religion was as a result of ISWAP’s renewed mission to persecute and kill Christians.
“We pray for the eternal repose of the souls of 10 Christians killed. We also offer our prayer for their bereaved family. We make our appeal once again to President Muhammadu Buhari to act swiftly and go after the perpetrators of this heinous crime and bring them to justice,” the group said.
