Use of CCTV Camera In All Churches Should Be Made Complusory, Oba Eselu Of Iselu advise CAN President


By Oluwayemisi Oloyede, Lagos

Ogun traditional rulers has advised President of Christain Association of Nigeria (CAN) Reverend Supo Ayokunle that they should facilitate the deployment of some 'closed-circuit televisions (CCTV) to every church in the country so as to constantly monitor the movement into and out of worship centres.

His Royal Majesty Oba (Dr) Ebenezer Akintunde Akinyemi 'JP' (Akaosu I), The Eselu of Iselu Kingdom, Yewa North Local Government Area of Ogun State, made this known in an open letter to the President of Christain Association of Nigeria (CAN) Rev. Supo Ayokunle on the dastardly act carried out by some assailants at St. Francis Catholic Church in Owo, Ondo State.

The monarch explained that the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) should also mandate all churches in the country to purchase and use security gadgets for thier protection".

Eselu said, it is my belief that once this technology and other security gadgets are deployed in all churches across the country, the children of God will bodly and regularly congregate to worship the Almighty God.

He therefore said, "It is, therefore, my sincere opinion that for the children of God to be courageous and feel safe, the Christian Association of Nigeria under your able leadership should put the safety of the children of God at the front burner. The Bible, in the book of Matthew 26:41, says "Watch and pray .... " It is good to pray fervently, but the scripture also asks us to be watchful. In short, my admonition to the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) is that, as a matter of urgency, they should facilitate the deployment of some 'closed-circuit televisions (CCTV) to every church in the country so as to constantly monitor the movement into and out of worship centres. The video footage from the 'closed-circuit televisions (CCTV) will continually assist the church authorities to raise alarm to security agents when the need arises". 

He said, "The assailants attacked a holy place where believers were worshiping the Almighty God. This gruesome attack is not only heinous, but sacrilegious. In fact, we must all stand up more than before to vehemently condemn and reject the invasion of Churches by  unknown gunmen. Thank God both good Muslims and Christians have continued to condemn the killings of Christians under the guise/cover of blasphemy in the country. The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) should continue to condem the act of killing anyone, both Christians and Muslims under the pretence of blasphemy. It is indeed barbaric and unacceptable. Let us all direct our energies towards an outrght stoppage of this madness in our dear country, Nigeria".

While the opportunity to commiserate with His Excellency, Arakunrin Rotimi Akeredolu, SAN, The Executive Governor of Ondo State; His Royal Majesty, Oba Ajibade Gbadegesin (Ogunoye III), The Olowo of Owo; the Christian Community in Ondo State and Nigeria in general and the families of the worshippers who were gruesomely murdered by the assailants. It is my prayer that the Almighty God will grant the families of the deceased the fortitude to bear these irrecoverable losses".

CAN President Sir, it is important to note that the Owo tragedy is capable of putting an unprecedented fear into the minds of the children of God and this alone can make them to desist from going to worship centres to pray to God. To me, we must not allow things to degenerate to that level where christians will desist from congregating to worship God.
