CAN urges calmness as deadline given to Southerners draw close

The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Kaduna State Chapter, on Friday in Kafanchan, donated relief materials to persons affected by attacks in Southern Kaduna.

The Chairman of the association, Bishop George Dodo, presented the materials to a committee set up to oversee the distribution.

According to him, the gesture is intended to cushion the effect of the hardship the victims are exposed to.

Dodo, who is also the Catholic Bishop of Zaria Diocese, said the donation was an all inclusive act of generosity to be “extended to victims of other faith”.

The clergy prayed for the return of normalcy to the troubled area and the exposure of the perpetrators.

Responding, Rev. Fr. Aaron Tanko, who is the chairman of the Distribution Committee, expressed gratitude over the gesture and assured of judicious distribution of the items.

It was reported that the items donated included, grains, clothing, kitchen utensils and a cheque of N3.5 million.
