CAN have raised a fresh alarm that Christians and everything that belongs to them is under attack by Boko Haram terrorist group in Yobe State.

Initially, Christians were the main target of the Islamist Boko Haram terrorist atrocities when the crisis in the North-east started but later turned to be the attacks against any perceived opposing voice either from Christians or Muslims and even lately against the innocent Nigerian citizens.


The Abuja branch of CAN released something that seems like a BB message on Friday. CAN is the umbrella body the Christian Association of Nigeria.

Below is the message from CAN on the latest attack:
"BREAKING NEWS!!!!!!!! Yobe states is boiling now, churches are being burnt, many xtians killed. Pls pray even if its 5mins & 4wrd 2 others. Don't ignore, cry 2 our God against those Terrorists. He'll hear & heal our land; frm CAN Abuja. Pls send 2 @ least 10 xtians".
