The communique read in part: “We condemned in strongest terms the unwarranted verbal attacks by some Islamic Clerics on the person of the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike because any attack on the Minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria is a direct attack on the entire country and entire Nigerians.
“What is most worrisome is the divisive comment on the security of the nation by these religious bigots who said that it is dangerous to leave national security in the hands of the Southerners. This is uncalled for in a democratic republic like Nigeria. “We should not forget that we are a secular nation, and as such, every religion or nation is free to hold a stake, as long as our peace and security are not jeopardized.
