Speaking at the event to mark the 2023 International Day of Human Fraternity yesterday in Abuja, Onaiyekan lamented that Killings are going on in different parts of the country, and many kidnapped victims have died in the hands of their abductors.
He noted that religion should not be a cause for division and war, rather, religion should be seen as an instrument for peace and unity among human beings irrespective of their faith.
Onaiyekan who regretted that people are manipulated for political and other ideological reasons warned that that God does not need anybody to kill in His name adding that nobody has the right to kill anyone irrespective of the reason.
