Support Candidates That Protect Human Dignity, ECWA Scholars Tell Nigerians

The Evangelical Church Winning All (ECWA) Scholars have called on Nigerians to vote for politicians who can protect human dignity.

The scholars admonished Nigerians especially Christians to fill the void wherever they are by respecting human dignity.

Speaking at the ECWA Scholars Conference Summit 22 held at the Bingham University, Karu, Nasarawa State at the Weekend, with the theme: “The Christian Scholars and National/Global Challenges,” a Professor of Theology and Social Ethics at the Jos ECWA Theological Seminary (JETS) and Director of the Centre for the Study of Religion, Yusufu Turaki said it is always abnormal if a man kills his fellow human being.

“When the white see their land, they search it to see what God has deposited in it. In Africa, people worship the land because of fear.

“God is an institution and the law and order.
