As terrorist attacks increase against churches and Christians in northern Nigeria and Plateau State, Release International is hosting a visit to the UK of the Archbishop of Jos, the Most Rev Dr Benjamin Kwashi. Dr Kwashi will be available for interview on August 30-31.
Some Christians have been accused of retaliating after attacks on their churches, while church leaders, including the Archbishop of Jos, urge them to obey Christ’s teachings to love their enemies.
Hard questions facing Christian communities, especially in the north, include whether to migrate or to stay and defend their churches and homes. Some observers are speaking of partition – splitting the country between north and south – which would lead to ethnic and religious cleansing and bloodshed.
The Archbishop of Jos, Benjamin Kwashi, has received death threats and his wife has been brutally attacked. He and his churches are dealing daily with the toughest questions of faith and existence.
Dr Kwashi is available for interview on August 30 and 31. He will be based in the South-East of England. Interviews could be carried out by phone, Skype, or in person. He is within easy reach of London. It could be possible for him to travel to a studio.
To book an interview with Dr Kwashi, please call Release’s UK Director Colin King on 01689 823491 before August 25. After August 25, please call Paul Thomas on 07747535588. (Release Int.)
