CAN Calls for Empathy as Nigerians Bear the Rising Cost of Living

As Christians mark Palm Sunday, the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) appeals to national leaders for compassion. They point to Jesus’s humble entry into Jerusalem as a model of peace and hope rather than force. Archbishop Daniel Okoh, CAN’s president, warns that global tensions have driven up fuel, transport, and food prices. Many families now struggle with daily expenses. In times like these, calm and caring leadership matters most. CAN emphasizes that true leadership shows restraint, empathy, and a focus on the common good. Decisions should ease burdens, soothe anxieties, and foster unity. This Palm Sunday spirit calls on all Nigerians to stand together in quiet courage and shared purpose.
