... on the Marble

"The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) may soon find the need to intervene in Akwa-Ibom State to remind the pastors that their job is to provide leadership and succor for the people, and not to serve as an extension of the state government secretariat. In other states where the clerics have become partisan politicians and I am sure if the christian body looks closely enough, it will find other examples, there should be an internal crusade to rescue the church and sanction erring pastors."- Reuben Abati, ex-Presidential aide to former President Goodluck Jonathan on the crisis rocking the churches in Akwa-Ibom State.
