Following series of attacks affecting churches across the country by terrorists, the Archbishop Church of Nigeria (Ondo Province) and Bishop of Akure Anglican Diocese, Revd Simeon Oluwole Borokini has asked Christians to procure arms to fight against invaders.

The cleric berated the federal government for being insensitive to the security situation in the country. Addressing journalists after the first session of the 14th synod of Akure Diocese held at Saint Andrew’s Church, Akure, the state capital, Borokini said the best thing for Christians is to get arms legitimately to defend themselves.

 

According to the cleric, “Anybody willing to have something to protect himself should get a license if it is a gun or anything that anyone wants to use to protect himself, I will support it since the government seems to be negligent as far as security is concerned.”

While advising states across the country to have security outfits to protect the citizens, Borokini equally asked the federal government to amend the constitution in such a way that would give room for state governments to have their own police.

 

The cleric said, “The number of policemen that we have cannot protect all the citizens that we have in the country. So, we should do something at the local level.”

 

We have been asking all our church leaders to comply with the installation of CCTV cameras in the church; they should get the gadgets before August 1st which is the deadline.”
