CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION: 'CAN' DECLARES NATIONWIDE DAY OF PRAYER AGAINST 'GENOCIDE' IN NIGERIA | #RWGBLOG


The Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, has declared a nationwide one-day prayer to seek divine intervention against what it described as ongoing “g+nocide” in parts of the country.

The directive followed resolutions made at CAN’s National Executive Council meeting held in Jos, Plateau State. In a memo dated November 20, 2025, and signed by CAN General Secretary, Apostle Prof. Samson A. Fatokun, the association instructed all bloc leaders, zonal and state chairmen, heads of church denominations, and resident pastors to mobilise their congregations for the special prayer scheduled for Sunday, December 7, 2025.

According to the memo, the prayer, which will be observed simultaneously across all Christian denominations in Nigeria, will focus on five key areas: ending the alleged g+nocide against Christians, ensuring the safe resettlement of displaced victims, halting the activities of t+rrorists, k+dn@ppers, and b@ndits, granting divine wisdom to those in government, and restoring peace and tranquility nationwide.

“The CAN President, His Eminence Archbishop (Dr.) Daniel C. Okah, has directed that this prayer be taken with all fervency,” the memo stated. “We strongly believe that our God will rise in power as He did in Esther’s time.”

Citing biblical passages from 2 Chronicles 7:14 and Esther 4:15–16, CAN urged churches to intercede passionately, expressing confidence that the spiritual exercise would lead to divine intervention for the nation.

The memo, titled: “Declaration of a One-Day Nation-Wide Prayer Against Christian G+nocide in Nigeria,” concluded with assurances from the CAN President and national leadership of their commitment to safeguarding the interests and welfare of Christians across the country.
