The Niger State chapter of the Christian Association of Nigeria has called on the Federal Government to reduce the cost of fuel and food in the country.
The call was made by the state CAN Chairman, Most Reverend Yohanna Bulus Dauwa, during inter-denominational prayers held on Sunday in Minna.
The prayers were organised as part of activities marking Nigeria’s 66th Independence Anniversary.
Dauwa said reducing the pump price of fuel would help bring down the cost of food and ease the pressure on households.
He also urged the Federal Government to take steps to stabilise the economy and reduce the hardship being experienced by citizens.
The CAN chairman further called for improved security, particularly in areas affected by insecurity.
The event brought together Christian leaders and worshippers in Minna to pray for the country and its leaders.
