BOMBINGS: Niger Delta Christian leaders say enough is enough

CHRISTIAN leaders from the Niger Delta geo-political zone of the country have expressed disgust over the inability of the Federal Government and its security agencies to guarantee safety of lives. They have therefore called on innocent Christians in the country to defend themselves whenever they come under attack.
In its reaction to the unrelenting violent attacks on Christians and their churches in the North, the group under the aegis of the Niger Delta Christian Leaders Forum (NDCLF) said it has lost confidence in the security system of the country. “We have also lost confidence in the ability of Government to protect the lives of Christians.”
In a statement signed by its Secretary General, Bishop Eddy Bebor, the group argued that it is now clear to all that members of the militant Islamic group called are jihadists who will stop at nothing until their purpose is achieved.
The statement also argued that no one is left in doubt that the “Government cannot do anything to fight this terror the National Assembly is finding it difficult to handle these Islamic terrorists.”
The Niger Delta Christians also believes that Northern leaders have shown to all and sundry that either they are supportive or the Boko Haram phenomenon is too much for them to handle.
“Worse of it all is that, the target has been Christians and worship their houses (Church). We have buried Christians and lost churches almost on a weekly basis in the North,” the statement explained.
