COVID-19: Let’s obey govt instructions – Northern CAN Chair
By Kingsley Chukwuka, Jos
The Chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Northern Nigeria, Reverend Yakubu Pam, has appealed to Christians to obey government instructions in keeping to the advice of restrictions and self isolation aimed at containing the spread of the Coronavirus.
Pam stated this on Sunday in Jos, while speaking to our correspondent on the rules set aside by government for worshippers, adding that the virus does not have regard for anyone’s faith or religion.
According to him: “I am appealing to Christians in the 19 Northern States, Abuja, and beyond to obey government instructions, because this virus is not looking at anybody’s face regardless of your faith, belief and colour.
