Israel-Hamas war: CAN warns against religious conflict as Adeboye backs Israel

Amid the escalating Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, has urged Nigerians not to allow the overseas hostility to deepen divisions or inflame religious tensions within the country.

He said: “This conflict holds significant implications for Nigeria’s faith communities. We must resist the temptation to allow this conflict to deepen divisions or inflame religious tensions within our nation.” “While recognizing Israel’s right to self-defense, we emphasize the importance of proportionality and the avoidance of harm to innocent civilians in any military response,” Okoh added.

Given the current situation, the religious organization advised the suspension of the airlifting of Nigerian pilgrims to sacred sites such as Jerusalem and Bethlehem until normalcy returns to the area.He also called on the international community, including the United Nations and relevant stakeholders, to intensify their efforts in facilitating a just and lasting resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
