The Catholic Archbishop of Abuja, Ignatius Kaigama, has called on political leaders to show concern and take proactive measures to save Nigerians from starvation.

His statement was due to rising food prices and the fear by Nigerians that next year will be more difficult, as many farmers are unable to go to the farm due to fear of attacks by bandits and killer herders.In his homily at the 20th anniversary of St. Donald Catholic Church, Karu, Abuja, yesterday, the cleric lamented: “Of the many challenges we face as a country, the challenge of leadership prevails.

He challenged the political leadership to exercise authority with fidelity and responsibility; like Jesus, to empty themselves of power and to empathise with the suffering of the people.

“A good leader is always compassionate. He feels the pains of his people and is ever available to them and uses all the resources in his power for their good. “Jeremiah’s prophecy of a virtuous branch from the descendant of David to reign as a true and diligent king found fulfillment in Jesus. In our case, too, once there is life, there is hope. Even in such difficult times of political, social, and economic crises, God promises to restore and heal our land,” he assured.
