state and those affected by the recent attack on Deeper Life Bible
Church to resist the temptation of retaliating.
Wada, who visited the General Superintendent of Deeper Life Bible
Church, Pastor William Kumuyi, who was in the state to condole with
members of his congregation, stressed that retaliation would mean that
"the designs of the enemies of the state and country had succeeded."
Represented by his Deputy, Mr. Yomi Awoniyi, the Governor said a lot
of findings had been made on who the perpetrators of the acts were,
adding that the ugly situation had no sectarian or religious
undertone.
He promised that all those involved would be brought to book, no
matter how highly placed.
Wada assured that all religions in the state will enjoy their rights
to freedom of worship as entrenched in the Nigeria Constitution
without fear or molestation.
The governor noted that the recent occurrence was the manifestations
of the sinful inclination of some criminals, seeking to reap where
they did not sow and were driven by their greed, avarice and lust. He
promised that no stone will be left unturned until the perpetrators
were brought to book.
Pastor Kumuyi, on his part expressed appreciation for steps taken by
the state government, saying the attack was premeditated.
He called on government and security agencies to be alert to their duties.
