Nigerian Christmas Bomb blast "A burden we must live with" - President Goodluck Jonathan

President Goodluck Jonathan on Sunday in Abuja described the bombings in the county as a burden Nigerians must live with until it fizzles out.

Jonathan made the remark when he received in audience a delegation of the Christian Community in FCT led by FCT Minister Bala Mohammed.

Jonathan said there was no justification for the crime and called on Nigerians to continue to pray for peace in the country.

The president was reacting to the bomb blast that occurred in the early hours of Sunday in Madalla, in Niger, shortly after the end of a church service.

"We have challenges as a nation; even this morning, a very ugly incident happened in a Catholic Church. We are yet to get the number of deaths in the incident.

"The issue of bombing is one of the burdens we must live with. It will not last forever; I believe that it will surely be over,'' he said.

Condoling with the families of those who lost their lives in the incident, Jonathan said that there was no reason for such an act to be carried out on a Christmas day.

The president did not make this exact statement "A burden we must live with"...its not right to quote what he did not say...he said its a burden we have to carry...its not the same as above...?Please let pray more for our nation over evil forces refusing progress and seek more Wisdom from Christ on a way forward in our great nation. God bless Nigeria.
