Hajiya Ramatu Tijjani, arrived Christ Evangelical Intercessory Fellowship Ministry Sabon-Tasha, Kaduna at 9:30am with her son, Abdullahakim, to attend Sunday church service with Christians and donate 50 Bibles written in Hausa language to the pastor and members.
This was done in a bid to strengthening religious tolerance and mutual understanding as the world marks International Interfaith Harmony Week by the United Nations. She explained that there is the need to start the World Interfaith Harmony Week holding between 1 and 7 February by donating important gift such as Bibles to Christians.
She pointed out that the impact of the previous ethno-religious and political crises in the state that claimed hundreds of lives and properties, was a serious setback to the peaceful co-existence in Kaduna, and urged clerics from both religions to preach sermons that foster unity and peaceful co-existence.
