Unity
By Toba Ajayi
Ilorin, June 8, 2024 (NAN) Pastor Kunle Silas of Christ Miracle Church, Ilorin, on Saturday urged Nigerians to embrace unity and stop religious discrimination against one another.
Silas made the appeal in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Ilorin noting that, religious discrimination could breed hate and division in the country.
According to him, most people select friends based on religious beliefs.
“Let us stop discriminating against one another. Let us unite and see ourselves as one family.
“We should not allow religion to divide us irrespective of our believes. Consider yourself Nigeria first before any other thing.
“Be your brothers keeper and help those who come to you for assistance. Give to the needy irrespective of their religion,” he said.
The cleric, however, urged religious leaders to stop hate campaign and focus on the unity of the country.
He further said that religious discrimination would continue to disunite the society, if not curbed.(NAN)(www.nannews.ng)
