The duo who spoke at the third quarter meeting 2022 of the Nigeria Inter Religion Council (NIREC), held on Monday in Lagos said it was necessary for them to make the call, as ban on political campaigning will be lifted in a few days.

The event with the theme: “Working together for Justice and Peace”  also attracted the presence of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Mr. Boss Mustapha and the state governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu.

In his address, Co Chairman of NIREC, Abubakar, said the role of religious leaders is to be just and fair to earn the trust of the people.

He urged Muslims and Christians in the country to come together to pursue peace and justice noting that they are inseparable.
