BY OLA AJAYI<\/p>\n

IBADAN\u2014 Seventh Day Adventist church has advised the Federal Government against using force in solving the Boko Haram crisis.<\/p>\n

At a briefing weekend, spokesman of the church in Nigeria, Pastor Oyeleke Owolabi, urged the government to call all the religious leaders, political office holders, security agencies and other stakeholders to a meeting where the problem of the religious sect would be resolved.<\/p>\n

On the proposed Islamic banking the cleric said:\u00a0 \u201cThe philosophy behind the establishment of the bank, which is to reduce the suffering of the masses is good but the trademark is wrong\u201d.<\/p>\n

The cleric, who is also the Pro-Chancellor of Babcock University, Ilisan\u2013Remo, Ogun State said it could not fathom why a sect would start killing and maiming innocent citizens.<\/p>\n

Owolabi said: \u201cAs a Christian leader, I feel touched that churches were burnt, Christians were killed but I still believe that we cannot achieve peace through force, nothing good will come out of force.<\/p>\n

\u201cThose \u00a0killing others are ignorant, what profit do they gain in killing fellow Nigerians.\u201d<\/p>\n

Islam means peace, if Islam is seeking peace, now, where comes killing, it is all deception. I have never seen in either Quran or Bible where it is written as kill and it shall be well with you, it\u2019s a satanic invention, they should stop hiding under religious identity\u201d.<\/p>\n

On Islamic banking, he said \u201cYou don\u2019t say a Christian bank, it is not advisable, I am not saying that Islam is not good but it is wrong in a country like ours\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
