Catholic Bishops in the Kaduna Ecclesiastical Province have attacked
the President Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal Government over the state of
the country’s economy.
The bishops called on the government to adopt viable ways of healing the injuries inflicted on the citizens.
According
to the bishops, for more than two years after taking over government,
the All Progressives Congress, APC, had not brought measurable
improvement on the welfare of Nigerians.
They noted that “The
APC-led government did not take advantage of the opportunities that our
last elections presented us. Our people entrusted them with their hopes
and voted across religion and region.”
This is part of a
communique signed and made available to reporters by the Chairman of the
Province, Archbishop Mathew Ndagoso, and Secretary, Bishop John
Niyiring, after its second plenary meeting in Minna.
The bishops said,
“We
are saddened by the fact that after over two years, there are still no
measurable changes in the welfare of our people. The recession has not
abated, the lives of ordinary people continue to hang in a balance as
insecurity ravages the land.
