Some leaders of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria on Wednesday, December 29, visited the former minister of aviation Femi Fani-Kayode in his Abuja residence.
The Islamic leaders, the minister said, gave him a
brief description on happenings in Kaduna state where the members of
the group have been killed and some others arrested.
The
leader of the group Ibrahim El-Zakzaky and his wife Zainab are
currently in detention in a Department of State Services facility in
Abuja.
Their detention followed a clash between
members of the group and troops attached to the convoy of the chief of
army staff Tukur Buratai in Zaria on December 5, 2015.
The former minister also received the secretary general of the Christain Association of Nigeria Reverend Musa Asake.
Speaking about Rev Asake, Fani-Kayode said: "We discussed the situation in the
country and particularly the marginalization, persecution, slaughter and
genocide that Christians are being subjected to in our nation today
with particular reference to Kaduna state and the north."
"May
God guide and protect him. He is one of the few men of God in this
country that has the courage of his convictions and that is prepared to
risk all for the Body of Christ. Onward Christian soldier..."
