An Osun cleric, Bishop Seun Adeoye, has urged the survivors of the Christmas day massacre in Plateau State to rise up and defend themselves.<\/p>\n

Bishop Adeoye, while condemning the Christmas day killings in Plateau State also described the videos shared from the attack scenes as horrible.<\/p>\n

The cleric, in his New Year Message released in Osogbo, Osun State capital on Sunday and titled \u201cNever fold your arms again\u201d added that it was pathetic that people will be slaughtered like chickens in their fathers land and security agencies were nowhere to be found.<\/p>\n

Condoling with the victims, he urged the survivors to henceforth defend themselves.<\/p>\n

\u201cNever fold your arms and allow agents of Satan destroy you, your wives and your children. Please, rise up and fight back against these murderers.<\/p>\n

\u201cPlateau state killings, just like Benue and Kaduna states didn\u2019t just begin, they have been occurring over the years. So, why did these continue?<\/p>\n

\u201cIf these dastardly acts cannot be nipped in the bud by security agencies and if the government has failed its duty to protect the victims, what then did you expect the people to do?<\/p>\n

\u201cThe options left to them is either to relocate from their fathers land and take refuge in other places or rise to the challenge by defending their wives and children.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have right to live and I have never read any portion of the Nigerian constitution where self-defence is an offence or read it anywhere in the Bible where self-defence is forbidden.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe duty of government is to protect lives and property, but Bola Tinubu\u2019s presidency has failed in all of these. Nigeria didn\u2019t need an armchair president trolling markets, hosting friends and wining and dining when a calamity of such magnitude befell a nation.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat\u2019s the Nigerian police policing? What\u2019s the territory the Nigerian Army says they are protecting? Who has been held to account for these heinous acts? This situation is sad and shameful.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bishop Adeoye said it was regrettable that after the normal and usual condolences by the nation\u2019s leaders; a week after this sad event, everything appeared to have quiet down until maybe when another one will occur.<\/p>\n

The cleric called on those who were employed to provide security for the nation to either brace up or quit if they think the task is overwhelming.<\/p>\n
