Youth CAN asks churches, pastors to support IDPs

The President of the Youth Wing of the Christian Association of Nigeria (YOWICAN), Engr. David Kadzai, has called on churches and pastors in the country to be more committed to the plights of the needy and the less privileged, particularly the Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) living in various camps across the country.

Speaking in Jos at the inauguration of the Plateau chapter of YOWICAN, Kadzai said it was unfortunate that many displaced persons would be passing through hard times without the brethren showing enough concern.

“Building edifices cannot replace taking care of the needy and the downtrodden. Christians and pastors need to be more committed to the plight of the needy,” he said.
