 The Vice President Yami Ushimbajou has stressed the need for peaceful coexistence among Nigerians regardless of our differences. Ushimbajou stated this while delivering a goodwill message at the 120th Founders' Day anniversary lecture of the African child held in Lagos. Plus TV Africa's correspondent Lovie Kukou Oedukou tells us more. It is the 120th Founders' Day anniversary of the African Church. The theme is the role of the Church in the face of insecurity in the nation. Vice President Yami Ushimbajou wants Nigerians to key into peaceful coexistence. We need to embrace peaceful coexistence, build, of course, on the principles of equity and fairness towards building a brave nation. We cannot achieve this without justice. We cannot coexist without equity. This is something that is expensive, totally specific, to put in there as a good will message. The guest lecturer, writer Remifi Kuka, described Nigeria as a crime scene. He believes it has nothing to do with where you live but by the grace of God. Kuka strongly opposed self-defense and advised Christians time to God in times like this. There can never be any meaningful development either in the church or in the society without peace. Therefore, it is our responsibility to always seek the face of the Lord on behalf of the Church and also on behalf of the society. We also, the Bible says we should pray for the peace of Jerusalem. So it is by that peace that we also will also have peace. But the bit on how Christians or people of other faith should react in face of life-threatening dangers is unending. No matter the side of the divide you may belong, peace should be our word. From Lagos, love Ikuku Uyiduku reporting for Plus TV, Africa.
