Maulud: CAN Urges Payers To Ease Hardship
The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has congratulated Muslims in the country on the celebration of Eid-ul-Maulud and called on political leaders to embrace justice and ease the economic hardship facing citizens.
In a statement signed by its president, Archbishop Daniel Okoh, CAN said the occasion “offers all Nigerians a moment of reflection on the values of humility, compassion, justice and devotion to God which the Prophet exemplified.”
He added that such values “transcend religious boundaries and point us towards building a society anchored on peace, fairness and mutual respect.”
Okoh noted that Nigeria is at a “critical crossroad” marked by governance challenges, economic hardship, and a deep yearning for credible leadership.
He urged leaders at all levels to “use this solemn season to embrace justice in their decisions, ease the burdens of hardship on citizens, and foster policies that strengthen unity and uphold the dignity of every Nigerian.”
He further prayed that the celebration would inspire stronger unity across faiths, renew hope for the country, and encourage Nigerians to work together for a just and prosperous nation.
