Kaduna state governor Nassir El-Rufai has issued a statement condemning the stabbing of a Christian man by Muslim youths because he decided to eat while Ramadan fast was on in.
“The government will not allow anyone to get away with any crime using his or her faith as an excuse,” El-Rufai said in a press release.
“There is no compulsion in religion. It is a free country, and that means no imposition of faith or religious practices on anyone.”
He implored the citizens of Kaduna State to “do their duty to uphold peace and security” in the State.
“We should not allow differences in faith to be a barrier to harmony or a cause for conflict. Nobody can impose a tenet of his faith on another person,” he said.
The governor added that citizens should “remain vigilant” and report any suspicious activities to the authorities in order to maintain peace in the State.
