Donating the items to the IDPs, the representative of the group, Revd. Mrs. Hannatu Samuel Ndibichukwu, said, “We’re here to sympathize with the victims of herdsmen attacks, to show solidarity as a people and as Christians, God enjoins us to show love to our neighbours as we do to ourselves.
“So, we’ve come to support them with the little that we have.”
She further stated, “I want to use this medium to call on able Nigerians to come to the aid of these people.”
Mrs. Ndibichukwu pray that God will bring and end to the calamity that has befallen our land and she advised the herdsmen doing the killings to repent and change from their evil ways before it is too late.
“As a ministy we will continue to pray for the peace of the land against the predicament bedeviling it,” she said.
She also expressed her pains over the Children at the IDPs, saying, “I can’t explain how I’m being troubled seeing these Children that ought to be at home with their parents and in school but, are now living in IDPs, living in harsh conditions.
“I’m calling on all mothers in the land to cry onto God for mercy, for peace to reign and for God to put an end to the killings,” she added.
Mrs. Ndibichukwu urged government across the spheres to beef up security of lives and properties. She equally appealed to government to have the fear of God in their hearts and do something concrete on the issue of insecurity.
