The Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN has demanded an open trial for the suspects in the murder of Madam Bridget Agbahime at Kofar Wambai Market, Kano.
Addressing newsmen in Kano, the Chairman of Northern CAN , Rev. John Joseph Hayab wondered why anyone would take someone's life just because they have a disagreement.
“So, if your enemy is angry with you, the best thing to do is to raise false alarm using religion as a cover to kill you.
“Our religious leaders must come out and preach the true tenets of religion, because this arrogance is getting too much.”
Hayab appealed to Kano State Government to make deliberate policies aiming at stopping religious extremism.
“This type of issue is giving Kano State a bad name and image.
“The Kano State government has to ensure that the trial of the man that raised the false alarm and his cohorts is not done in secret in order to serve as deterrent to others,” he said.
“Kano State government must do something permanently about this kind of issues which keep occurring, because this whole issue give the state a bad name before the international community,” he added.
