Mathew Kukah, the Catholic Bishop of Sokoto Diocese has launched another attack on the government of the day, saying that Nigeria has become a wasteland where people commit sins to seek forgiveness abroad the guise of lesser or higher pilgrimages.
The clergy said this in a sermon delivered at the wake for Archbishop Peter Yariyock Jatau at St. Joseph’s Catholic Cathedral, Kaduna, titled, “A Nation in Search of Its Soul”.
He said, “Nigeria has become a ‘huge wasteland, huge debris of the deceit, lies, treachery, double-dealing and duplicity.”
“Our nation has become one huge waste land, huge debris of the deceit, lies, treachery, double-dealing and duplicity. Nigerian politicians have turned our politics into a huge trojan horse, a hoax, a hall of guile and dissimulation.
“The levels of frustration are rising by the day and we can see all this in the rise in domestic violence and inter-communal conflicts. A combination of all these has turned us unto a nation at war with itself.
“Nigerians complain that the country is full of churches and mosques and they cannot find the values of these religions in everyday life. We sin at home by stealing the nation’s resources but we seek repentance and forgiveness in Saudi Arabia and Jerusalem in the guise of lesser or higher pilgrimages.”
