The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has called for the immediate arrest of the President of Miyetti Allah.

Naija News understands that the apex Christian organization made this known in a statement on Sunday, September 22.

CAN its statement on Sunday, jointly signed by its chairman in the Southeast, Bishop Dr. Goddy Okafor and the Secretary, Dr. S.C Nwokolo, said that such strange faces should be made to leave the zone.

The statement reads; “All the people without identity, who are flooding the zone should be stopped by immigration and other law enforcement agencies.

“Also, suspected foreign herders and the killer herdsmen are asked to leave the zone immediately. Most of such foreign and killer herders have been identified in some parts of the zone.”

CAN, however, pointed out that “the local government chairmen, traditional rulers, President-Generals, (PGs) and councilors are living in the urban areas, thereby abandoning the villagers to their fate.

“We condemn such habit and ask them to start operating from their villages. Let them come back and be the gatekeepers in their villages.

“CAN is calling for his arrest, as comments credited to him has always been inciting. Let him be tried by a competent court of law.
