Bishop Kukah

The Catholic Bishop of Sokoto Diocese, Matthew Hassan Kukah has come out to blast the government’s inability to stop killings and banditry in Nigeria.

He recently revealed this during his homily at the burial of late Rev Fr. Alphonsus Yasshim Bello at Our Lady of Apostles Catholic Church, Kaduna, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, Nigeria’s leaders have no blood in their hearts, and they are allowing this killing of citizens in their innocency for that reason.

He added that there is nowhere in the whole world where barbarism and killings of humans have been manifested as it is in Nigeria of today.

His words, “Those who govern us are allowing this killing of citizens in their innocency because they have no blood in their hearts.”

“There is nowhere in the whole world where barbarism and killings of humans has been manifested as it is in Nigeria of today.”

“How did Nigeria come to this tragic situation? We know who they are, who they believed in and where their inspiration comes from. The government has never declared the kidnappers to be a terrorists group.”

“There is no ambiguity about those who are killing our people and why they are doing so and where their inspiration comes from.”

“We hear and live with stories of complicity at the highest level. We, as Christians, can only rely on the faithful word of God.”

“Is it possible that you have a country where people have sworn with Qur’an and Bible to uphold the principle of governance?”

“That they will do everything within their power to protect and defend the integrity of Nigerians and suddenly we are where we are today?”
