Governor of Imo State, Rochas Okorocha has said that the killings in Plateau and Zamfara States is beyond religious war.
Okorocha stated that in some of the incidents, both Christians and Muslims were victims.
He stated that the country was at the moment passing through very difficult times thereby urging religious leaders across the nation to pray to God for the peace of the country.
The governor made this statement at the 10th Episcopal Anniversary of the Catholic Bishop of Orlu Diocese, Imo State, His Lordship, Most Rev. Augustine Ukwuoma at the Holy Trinity Cathedral, Orlu.
He said: “Initially, I thought that what was going on in some parts of the country was a religious war; but the Plateau and Zamfara killings have shown that what we have in our hands is beyond religious killings.
“In these killings Muslims were killing Muslims and Christians killing Christians. They kill innocent citizens both young and old. And for us Christians, this is the time to pray for peace and love for one another.
“Some people have lost their sense of value for lives with the rate at which blood-letting is going on in this Country.”
