Aba-Abia State chapter of Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, and human rights activists in the state have urged northern governors to re-build churches and markets\u00a0 burnt during the post-election violence.<\/p>\n

Bishop Goddy Okafor, the state Chairman of CAN, told newsmen in Aba, yesterday, that northern governors should re-settle and compensate families who lost lives and property as soon as possible.<\/p>\n

He condemned the killings of innocent Nigerians, including some National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, members and burning of churches and markets, warning that\u00a0 \u201cenough is enough\u201d.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cSuch dastardly acts should stop. If anyone is aggrieved, he should go to court to seek redress instead of taking the lives of innocent Nigerians.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Christians have endured so much and there is a limit to their endurance. Let it never be mentioned again that Christians were killed or churches burnt in the north. We all have equal rights if we must remain as a nation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Okafor urged the Federal Government to ensure that the perpetrators of the post-election violence were adequately punished to serve as a deterrence to others in future.<\/p>\n

He thanked God for the success of the general elections, and urged President Goodluck Jonathan to use the God-given opportunity of his election to better the lives of Nigerians.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet him use the opportunity given to him by Nigerians to better their (Nigerians) lives; especially in the power sector, education, health, road and agriculture.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
