CAN offered its sincere prayers and condolences to the families who have lost their loved ones in the unfortunate incident, saying its thoughts and prayers go to the 25 individuals who sustained injuries, praying for their quick and complete recovery.

 

“The Zaria Central Mosque holds significant historical and religious value, having stood as an important place of worship for over 150 years. We recognize the deep attachment and emotional connection that the Muslim community has with this sacred place, and we share in their grief and loss.

“In this moment of sorrow, we stand united as one people, acknowledging the importance of mutual respect, understanding, and peaceful coexistence among the various religious communities in Nigeria. Tragedies such as this remind us of our shared humanity and the need for solidarity during times of crisis,” he said.

Okoh further commended the swift response of the relevant authorities and emergency services in rescuing survivors and providing necessary medical attention.

“Furthermore, we call on religious leaders, both Christian and Muslim, to use this unfortunate event as an opportunity to deepen interfaith dialogue by showing understanding. In this way, we can build a society where all individuals, regardless of their religious affiliations, can practice their faith freely and peacefully.

“May the souls of the departed rest in eternal peace, and may the injured recover quickly. Let us unite, support, and comfort each other during this difficult time,” he stated.
