Kwara CAN: Govt didn't carry us along

Date: 2020-05-25

Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) in Kwara state on Sunday said the state government did not carry stakeholders along before closure of worship centres in the wake of Covid-19 pandemic. CAN added that in spite of this, it went ahead to urge members to abide by the government's directives.

State Chairman of the association, Bishop Paul Olawoore said this in Ilorin, the state capital while fielding questions from reporters on this year's World Communications Day.

Most Rev Olawoore, who is also the diocesan Catholic Bishop of Ilorin, echoed Pope Francis adumbration on the danger posed by fake news, rumours, unfounded and baseless lies.

He said: "At the national levels, religious leaders and other stakeholders were called, dialogued with about the situation of things. The national leaders agreed with government about whatever steps it would take to curtail the spread of the deadly virus."
