In a statement issued by Mr. Emmanuel Egoh Bako, the Sate Chairman of PFN, Kaduna State, the body condemned the killing and called on the authorities to fish out those behind it.

“We are deeply saddened by the news of the murder of Pastor Jeremiah Kehinde Omolewa of the Living Faith Church, Romi New Extension and the abduction of his wife along the notorious Kaduna-Abuja Road.

“This is not an isolated case but part of the general and daily news which now bedevil our Nation,” the body said.

PFN, therefore charged the government to match words with actions by apprehending the culprits adding that the Christian body wants the government, both federal and state, to be proactive in handling the deteriorating cases of insecurity in Kaduna State and Nigeria as a whole.

The body said PFN does “not subscribe to the lame and habituated defense that the government and security agencies have been overwhelmed by the challenges and or that they are on top of the situation.

“This unfortunately, is not always the case seen with the swiftness in handling petty political issues.

“As citizens, we demand that the government brace up to its primary statutory responsibility of guaranteeing the safety of our lives and property of the citizenry”.

The umbrella body of Pentecostal Ministries further stated that it is time to put aside party politics and sentiments and take national interest above all-personal, sectional and group interest.

“We beckon on the conscience of stakeholders and the international community to wake up from this current lethargy.”

The association noted that though the cruelty of the gunmen and the laxity on the part of the government is so pathetic and very painful, “we take consolation in the fact that our brother and fellow minister has gone home to be with the Lord. Hence, we extend our condolence to the immediate family of the pastor and the entire Living Faith Church aka Winners Chapel family”.
