The Christian Association of Nigeria has raised the alarm over alleged plans by armed men to attack Southern Kaduna and other areas dominated by Christians in some Middle Belt states.
Specifically, CAN said it had been informed that the planned attacks were targeted at Southern Kaduna chiefdoms and towns that included Gumel, Dagwarga, Daddu, Mariri and Kagoro, as well as hotels, the National Open University of Nigeria and other soft targets, in particular.
The Special Assistant (Media and Communications) to the CAN President, Pastor Adebayo Oladeji, in a statement on Wednesday, called on President Muhammadu Buhari and the security agencies to prevent the alleged plot.
The statement said, “While we are prone to dismiss these planned attacks as products of figments of imagination, we are, however, constrained to call on President Muhammadu Buhari and other security agencies to be aware and take precautionary measures.
“Having witnessed unprecedented human carnage on the Plateau, we call on the President to place the security agencies on red alert in order to avoid a similar recurrence.”
“CAN is once again calling on President Muhammadu Buhari to replace all the security chiefs and the Inspector General of Police because they have overstayed their welcome,” it said.
