GOOD EFFORT: Christians And Muslims Fast, Eat Together In Kaduna?

The youth chairman of Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Kaduna State Chapter and co-chairman, Christian-Muslim Youth Peace Initiative of Nigeria (CMPIN), Mr. Diji Obadiah Haruna yesterday said Christian youths broke fast with Muslims to foster peace in the North among diverse religion.

The Muslim youths hosted their Christian counterpart on Saturday night to break Ramadan fast inside the prestigious Sultan Bello Mosque Ungwan Sarki Kaduna and had over hundred Christian youths with their leaders in attendance, where the food were served in a bowl and eaten together.

The occasion was organized by the Christian-Muslim Youth Peace Initiative of Nigeria under the Chairmanship and vice, Dr Suleiman Shuabu Shinkafi for the Muslim youths and Mr. Diji Obadiah Haruna for Christians.

“The coming together would not stop at eating and making speeches but rather as a sober reflection on the past and to join forces to stop violence in the trouble region. Our objective is to build bridges across different segment of the society where we will be our brothers’ keeper without differences,” he maintained.
