Fani-Kayode backs calls for CAN to use tithes to buy arms for Christians

Former Aviation Minister Femi Fani-Kayode has backed the call by Sam Omatseye, Chairman, Editorial Board, The Nation that Christens Association of Nigeria (CAN) should use tithes to buy arms for Christians for self defence.

The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has said in November that 102 Christians were killed, over 50,000 houses burnt while another 215 were injured since May 2016 by suspected Fulani herdsmen in 25 villages in Kaduna state.

Omatseye, Thursday, on his twitter handle @samomatseye had tweeted ‘102 killed and 500000 houses razed in southern Kaduna. Isn’t it time for CAN to use its tithes to buy arms for Christians for self defense?’

Fano-Kayode in his tweet said that, ''I support @samomatseye's call on Xtians in southern Kaduna to defend themselves from genocide and his appeal to CAN to help them. Self-defence, like self-determination, is a right. Those that take pleasure in mass murder and carnage must be stopped. Enough is enough. We must always remember that betrayal, gossip, slander, backbiting, murmuring, ingratitude, treachery and deceit are the language of slaves. God is on the side of the weak and the oppressed. God is never in favour of the tyrant! And fighting against tyranny is obedience to God.''
