The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has asked what those worshipping at the University of Maiduguri commit that they were bombed, and expressed the hope that the Boko Haram menace will soon become history.
The University of Maiduguri was hit by three suicide bombers who reportedly sneaked into the institution and detonated Improvised Explosive Devices at three different locations, at a mosque near Gates 4 and 5 of the institution, killing Professor Aliyu Mani, and six others with 15 people suffering multiple injuries.
The CAN President, Rev. Dr. Samson Olasupo A Ayokunle, in a statement he personally signed said only satanic agents amidst us could perpetrate such dastardly acts and wondered when worshipping God has become a crime.

“The Christian Association of Nigeria condemns the wicked and criminal bombing of people worshipping in the mosques at the University of Maiduguri recently.
“What offence did these worshippers commit to warrant this? Only the demon possessed individuals can be behind this type of act,” he stated.
Ayokunle commiserated with the families of the deceased and wished those recuperating in the hospital quick recovery.
“The Christian Association of Nigeria commiserates with the family of the victims of the terrorist attack and prays for the comfort of the Holy Spirit for them. The Association as well prays for quick recovery for those that were injured”.

He called on security agencies to go after the terrorists who have been dislodged from their strongholds but going about attacking the soft targets with a view to ending the menace as soon as possible.
