The management of FrieslandCampina WAMCO Nigeria Plc, manufacturers of Peak Milk, has apologised to the Christian Association of Nigeria for using the crucifixion of Jesus Christ as a metaphor to promote their product on Good Friday, saying the social media' advertisement has been withdrawn.

Since the advertisement, there had been a public outcry among Christendom which described it as “blasphemous.”

He had said, “Good Friday is a solemn day for Christians all over the world, a day we commemorate the death of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, who was crucified on the cross for our sins. It is not a day to be used for crass commercial purposes. “We are considering sanctions against FrieslandCampina WAMCO Nigeria PLC, including a boycott of their products by our members and all well-meaning Nigerians who share our concerns. We call on the company to issue an unreserved apology to the Christian community and withdraw the offensive advert immediately.

Who are the directors, marketing manager of Peak Milk? Didn't they approve the advertisement before it went public

Always provoking Christians. Why?

Lol 😂, the body called CAN is a joke. It would have been better of the Christian body could set up a new meaningful body away from CAN. NOTHING will happen thereafter, they don't even have the authority to tell Christians to boycut Peak Milk lol 😂. CAN is useless. No offense

This people are intentional of what they do. Later they will come and be apologizing. Try dis nonsense with Muslims and their prophet and see what will happen. We christians we take and tolerate a lot of shits which is not okay.
