The Bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Sokoto, Reverend Father Matthew Kukah, on Thursday, said Nigeria has not been healed from its wounds caused by the civil war of 1967-1970.
The reverend Father disclosed this at a zoom meeting while speaking on the theme: “The Second never again conference: 51 years after Nigerian-Biafran Civil war, organised by Dele Momodu of the Ovation Magazine.
Kukah urged Nigerians to gather history, for it is a means of Nigerians quenching the taste of violence in the country.
He added that “Nigerians and of course their leaders are not happy with the current situation of the country.
He mentioned poor economic policies, insecurity and poor education and health systems as issues confronting the country and advised the current administration to fix them.
“We are failing in almost all the sectors. We must stand up and fix them.
“There is enough blame to go round; everyone should be blamed for the current situation of the country.
“If we are saying NEVER AGAIN, we must identify some fundamental issues. We must have our history written down or acted as a movie.
“We must understand the role of religion in Nigeria. The issue of consequentiality should also be of great essence. There should be consequences for good and bad behaviour,” he said.
