Baba said ECWA is worried over attacks on Christian communities in the Middle Belt, the North and other parts of the country and the needless destruction of lives and properties by Jihadists militia and Boko Haram.
The Church equally condemned forceful occupation of natives farmlands and systematic genocide being executed against Christians and other autochthonous communities through out Nigeria, especially in the middle belt region.
