Bishop Michael Nazir-Ali - TOP MAN!

'Bishop Michael Nazir-Ali is calling on the British government to put pressure on Eritrea to release thousands of Christians who have been jailed for their faith.
Bishop Michael and Release International presented a 43,000-signature petition to the Eritrean ambassador and to Gordon Brown [Jan 15] calling for an end to imprisonment without trial and torture in Eritrea.

‘This petition expresses concern for the Christians who are being kept in prison, in underground cells and shipping containers in the heat of the day and the cold of the night. It seems inhuman and barbaric,’ said Bishop Michael, who resigned his post as Bishop of Rochester to campaign for persecuted Christians.'
